1.HPL material system
EN 438-3 defines HPL intended for bonding to substrates.
Main application areas:
| H | Horizontal application |
| V | Vertical application |
Requirements with reference to their resistance to abrasion, impact and scratch:
| G | General requirements |
| D | More stringent requirements for heavy duty applications |
Existing types:
| S | Standard quality for HPL |
| P | Postforming HPL similar to type S that can be formed at elevated temperature |
| F | Flame-retardant HPL (meets increased requirements of different fire protection tests) |
Application example:
| HGS | Horizontal application with general requirements |
| HGP | Horizontal postforming application with general requirements |
| VGF | Vertical, flame-retardant application with general requirements |
