What is HPL?

High Pressure Decorative Laminated Sheets — HPL, commonly called sunmica — are built from multiple layers of kraft paper impregnated with phenolic resin, topped with a printed decorative layer and fused under high heat and pressure. That phenolic core is what makes the sheet hard, stable and durable. Artis makes HPL in three lines: the premium 1mm Artis, and the 0.8mm Woodrica and Artvio ranges, plus the 0.72mm Fine Decor economy line.
