Product catalog summary
Product Description: Engraving materials are decorative high-pressure laminates (HPL) with a triple-layer, symmetric construction of melamine resin cellulose layers, each with distinct colors. The outer layers contrast with the core color to enhance engraving visibility. These materials are available in high gloss finishes and are resistant to light, free of heavy metals, and ensure color uniformity across batches.
Available Products: Various color combinations are available, such as blue-white-blue, yellow-black-yellow, and others, with a total of 49 possible combinations. Products are listed in the dekoplus and starline brochures.
Balancing Layer and Dimensions: Engraving materials do not require a high-density fiberboard or balancing layer. Standard dimensions are 605 x 1220 mm or 805 x 1220 mm, with special sizes available upon request. Thickness ranges from 1.0 mm to 4.0 mm, adhering to DIN EN 438 standards.
Applications and Working: Suitable for nameplates, tags, and signs, these materials can be cut, milled, and drilled with hard metal tools. Specific tool data and cutting speeds are provided. Mounting can be done using adhesives or bolts.
Cleaning and Care: Clean with a soft cloth or sponge using water and mild detergents. Avoid abrasive cleaners or those containing acids.
Storage: Store in a controlled climate (18-25°C, 50-60% humidity) in a flat, horizontal position. Protect from moisture, sunlight, and warm air flow.
Disposal: Classified as Class I "miscellaneous hardened plastic waste," these materials can be disposed of as household rubbish or incinerated in designated plants.

Product data sheet Langenthaler Str. 4 69434 Hirschhorn/Neckar Germany phone 00-49-6272-689-0 fax 00-49-6272-689-30 Version: 10ZT09E mgraving Materials Product Description Engraving materials are decorative high-pressure laminates ( HPL ) as specified in DIN En 438-1 and come mainly in solid colours. As opposed to standard laminates, engraving material has a triple-layer, symmetric construction of melamine resin cellulose layers. Each layer has its own distinct colour. Usually, the colours of the outer two layers contrast strongly with the core colour. This contrast makes the engraving stand out, distinctly improving legibility. The overlay layers are kept thin for engraving purposes. Their thickness is 0.1 mm. High gloss surface finishes add to the contrast with the core layer. The plain coloured papers are uniformly dyed. Batch to batch colour uniformity is guaranteed meaning laterorders match existing colours perfectly. The papers are free of heavy metals and highly resistant to light, having a DIN 53799 rating of 6 or 7. Aluminium foil can also be applied as double sided cover layer to the core by means of high pressure for use as an engraving material.
