Small compact HPL parts

Small parts do not offer surfaces which allow them to be easily held, which is why they are more delicate to make.

Our multi-decade experience in tablettery (in particular in the gripping and machining of small wooden parts), combined with our excellent knowledge of the specifics of compact laminates, guarantees you high precision work.

Postforming compact HPL

Under the combined effect of heat and pressure, the postformed compact HPL panel becomes flexible and can therefore take the shape of the mold on which is it applied. In fact, contrary to classic compact laminate, the core of this panel is malleable.
