They are an affordable substitute for natural materials and can replace high-cost floorings, such as marble, granite, and slate. However, they are relatively more expensive than low-pressure laminates because of high manufacturing costs. Moreover, the construction of residential and commercial buildings in developed and developing countries has increased due to the growing population and rapid urbanization. In addition, these laminates offer an unlimited variety of colors, finishing surfaces, thickness range, and dimensions, depending on the requirement.
Decorative high-pressure laminates are impervious to oil and liquid stains and heat; and offer high durability, scratch resistance, and cost-efficiency. They manufacture furniture in home decor, such as sofas, beds, and tables. In addition, they are used in wall shelves in bathrooms, kitchens, and studies, as well as in modular cabinets and RTA furniture. In addition, these laminates are also used in wall highlighting.
