Langenthaler Str.4 69434 Hirschhom/Neckar Germany Tel.: +49-6272-689-0 Fax: +49-6272-6893-0 Product data sheet Product description The product name dekopix designates decorative high pressure laminate ( HPL ) according to DIN EN 438-1, whereby their print data is provided by the customer in electronic form for digital printing. As defined in this standard, core layers are impregnated with phenolic and / or amino resins, and a top layer or layers, impregnated with amino resin (mainly melamine resin) are pressed into decorative high pressure laminates. The top layer in product line dekopix is a digital print with a melamine surface. The digital print in dekopix is protected by this melamine surface. The dekopix boards are therefore resistant against weak acids and bases. Graffiti also can be easily and without any residue removed from this surface by using Graffiti Remover. The printed special papers are preferably produced in a digital printing process. The colour line is secured in these prints. These prints are free of heavy metals and have a high light stability (within the scope of standard tolerances). The DIN divides the HPL products according to material types and their specific base characteristics: 1) 2) Standard quality = Type S ( thickness < 2.0 mm) Standard quality = Type S ( thickness ≥ 2.0 mm) Dekopix - designs can be produced in various surface structures, such as matt (MA), high gloss (HGL) or (MPM). Backing sheet for dekopix: RS 16 GLA 010 This backing sheet is a white uniform melamine laminate board with a smooth surface without any special quality requirements.

Delivery form and quality All dekopix - boards are delivered in dimensions of 2440 x 1220 mm. The tolerance limits for the dimensions along and across the sheets as required in DIN EN 438 are: - The board thickness of dekopix - Boards can be manufactured from 1,0 mm to 4.0 mm. The standard thickness in these designs is 1.0 mm (weight: 1.68 kg/m ²) The limits according to DIN EN 438 also apply for the thickness variations. Nominal thickness Limit deviations For purchase of thicker dekopix - Please send an enquiry in-house for clarification. The fire performance of the dekopix - Standard...

The pressing temperature can be selected between 60-80° C. However, the higher the bonding temperature is, the greater is the risk of distortion. The processing instructions by the manufacturer must be followed for the contact adhesives, reactive adhesives and hot melt adhesives. A symmetric structure must be observed for composite elements, i.e. the back is glued to a suitable backing sheet board. A good flatness is achieved when using the same board quality on the back of the element with a 2nd-grade board, or with backing sheet board RS 16 GLA 010. Cleaning and Maintenance The dekopix-...
