HPL (High Pressure Laminate) / Trespa

Other

HPL, or High Pressure Laminate, is a composite material produced by impregnating layers of paper or wood fibers with phenolic resin and compressing them under high pressure and temperature. The result is an extremely hard, rigid, and durable sheet that resists weather, chemicals, and mechanical loads. Trespa® is a leading brand in the HPL market, known for its high-quality finish and long lifespan.
Well-known trade names include Trespa®, Abet Laminati, Resopal, and Formica.
