FAQ
High pressure laminate (HPL) is the generic name for the material, while Formica is one of the top laminate brand that manufactures HPL sheets. Many people use “Formica” as a shorthand for any laminate, but technically Formica is a brand, and we also stock HPL from other manufacturers such as Wilsonart, FENIX, and Arpa, Kronospan and more
Standard HPL is primarily designed for interior use. However, specialized exterior-grade HPL products are available that are engineered with enhanced UV resistance and weatherproofing for outdoor applications. Always specify the appropriate grade for your intended environment.
HPL and MDF do different jobs in a panel: HPL is the hard, decorative surface, and MDF is usually the core or substrate underneath.
HPL is built as a separate, multi-layer laminate sheet using kraft papers and resins, then bonded to a board, which makes it thicker, tougher, and better for high‑wear surfaces like countertops, tabletops, and heavy‑use furniture.
TFL is made by fusing a single decorative melamine paper directly onto a particleboard or MDF core, with no kraft paper core, creating a finished panel in one step that works well for vertical or light‑duty areas such as cabinet interiors and furniture carcasses where extreme durability is not as critical.
