Product Description
Recommended Uses
Wilsonart Laminate is suitable for use on fine quality residential and contract furniture, fixtures and
casework, and also for architectural application on columns, wainscoting, valances, cornices, interior
doors and divider systems.
 General Purpose (HGS) Type 107 is most frequently used for work surfaces on counters,
islands, vanities, desks and tables. Typical vertical uses include surfacing for wall panels, teller
cages and the front panels of workstations, such as those in hospitals, airports and restaurants.
Type 107 is produced for both horizontal and vertical interior applications where the surface must
be functional, durable and decorative.
 Vertical Surface (VGP) Type 335 is the usual choice to surface cabinet walls, doors and drawer
panels. It often appears on the vertical surfaces of desks, restaurants booths and maitre d’
stations, and as architectural cladding. Type 335 is intended for vertical applications where a
functional, durable, decorative surface must absorb somewhat less impact than a comparable
horizontal surface. VGP surfaces may be postformed to achieve radiused edges.
 Postforming (HGP) Type 350 adds the decorative capability of a soft edge to any typical laminate
use. Common applications of postforming laminates are formed edges for counters, desktops,
cabinet doors and drawer panels. Type 350 is intended for use on vertical and horizontal interior
surfaces where it is necessary or desirable to roll the laminate on a simple radius over the edge of
the substrate. This eliminates seams and leaves an attractive surface.
Product Composition
Decorative surface papers impregnated with melamine resins are pressed over kraft paper core
sheets impregnated with phenolic resin. These sheets are then bonded at pressures greater than
1000 pounds per square inch at temperatures approaching 300F (149C). Finished sheets are
trimmed, and the backs are sanded to facilitate bonding.
Basic Limitations
Wilsonart Laminate is for interior use only and is not recommended for direct application to plaster,
concrete walls, or gypsum wallboard. It is not structural material and must be bonded to a suitable
substrate.
Do not subject Wilsonart Laminate to extremes in humidity, temperatures higher than 275F (135C)
for substantial periods of time, or intense, continuous, direct sunlight.
Patterns & Colors
