Product catalog summary
Description
Formica Ligna® is a decorative laminate with a real wood veneer surface, offering durability and consistency superior to conventional veneers. It is available in various grades, decors, and finishes, pre-finished with lacquer or melamine, and requires no additional surface treatment. These laminates are designed for dry, interior, vertical applications and come with a protective film.
Storage and Handling
Careful handling is necessary to prevent splitting along the veneer grain. Laminates should be lifted, not dragged, and stored flat in a controlled environment (18-25ºC, 50-60% humidity). Avoid sunlight and moisture exposure to prevent color changes.
Machining and Fabrication
Standard safety measures for dust extraction and fire precautions should be followed. Protective gloves are recommended due to sharp edges. The laminates can be machined with conventional equipment but are not postformable. Preconditioning is crucial to manage expansion and shrinkage due to humidity changes.
Environmental
Materials are sourced from managed forests, using sustainable woods like Poplar, Ayous, and Koto. Formica Group holds FSC Chain of Custody certification, and the laminates are certified FSC 40% Mix.
Care and Maintenance
Clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid polishes, waxes, or acid-based cleaners. The laminates withstand moderate heat but are not suitable for kitchen work surfaces.
Fire Performance
Available in Vertical, Standard Grade (VVS) and Vertical, Flame-retardant Grade (VVF). Fire resistance is classified as C,s2-d0 according to EN 13501-1:2010-01, with additional approvals for IMO/MED and USCG requirements.
Technical Data
Includes size tolerance, thickness, lightfastness, formaldehyde emission, and resistance to staining. Not postformable, with specific gloss levels and compliance with EN standards.
