How Samrat Exterior HPL Cladding is Made: The Science Behind Strength & Style
Samrat’s Exterior High-Pressure Laminate (HPL) Cladding is engineered through a state-of-the-art manufacturing process that ensures exceptional durability, superior weather resistance, and stunning aesthetics. The combination of high-quality raw materials, precision engineering, and advanced technology results in a product that is both long-lasting and visually appealing, making it ideal for exterior applications.
Raw Material Selection: The Foundation of Strength
The process begins with carefully selected high-quality kraft paper and decorative surface layers that form the core of Samrat’s HPL Cladding. These materials are chosen for their strength, flexibility, and resistance to environmental factors.
- Kraft Paper Layers – Impregnated with thermosetting resins for enhanced rigidity and durability.
- Decorative Surface Paper – Coated with high-performance resins to provide UV resistance, color stability, and design versatility.
- Overlay Protection Layer – Adds an extra protective barrier against scratches, moisture, and wear, ensuring a long-lasting finish.
High-Pressure Lamination: Strength in Every Layer
Once the raw materials are prepared, they undergo high-pressure lamination, a process that transforms them into a solid, durable panel:
- Impregnation with Thermosetting Resins – The kraft paper and decorative layers are impregnated with advanced thermosetting resins, which enhance fire resistance, water resistance, and structural integrity.
- These resins ensure that the final product is chemically bonded, making it non-porous, stable, and highly durable.
Compression Under High Temperature & Pressure
The impregnated layers are stacked together and subjected to high-pressure (≤1000 psi) and high-temperature (≥150 °C) treatment in hydraulic presses.
- This process fuses the layers into a single, compact panel, eliminating air pockets and ensuring dimensional stability.
- The high-pressure treatment gives Samrat’s HPL a dense, non-porous surface, making it resistant to external elements like moisture, impact, and UV radiation.
Surface Hardening & Protective Coating
A special protective overlay is applied to enhance surface durability against scratches, stains, and extreme weather conditions. This overlay ensures that Samrat Exterior HPL Cladding maintains its original color and texture for years, even under intense sunlight and pollution.
