What are melamine panels and how to protect them

For panels made of MDF or particle board, melamine is a common covering. Melamine panels are a flexible, affordable choice for adding texture and colour to any design. The melamine sheet is then heated to a high temperature and thermoset to a beautiful paper laminate and, as a consequence, a waterproof, strong plastic sheet with a variety of textures and real wood grains is produced.

To complement them, at Protecnic we create edgebanding for melamine panels, which not only meets an aesthetic function but also serves to protect the melamine board from scratches and moisture. As the importance of melamine has increased, appearing in nearly every room, no matter if talking about public or private spaces, edgebanding is especially adequate to recover it, as apart from fulfilling its function of protecting the board, also blends with the design and makes of its finish a unique piece.
