Product Overview

Non-Combustible High Pressure Laminate

Carve Non-Combustible HPL is a high pressure melamine board built on a fiberglass-reinforced modified phenolic core with aluminium hydroxide flame-retardant filler. It achieves a Flame Spread Index of 0 under ASTM E84 — the best possible result — making it ideal for interior wall and ceiling finishes where Class A fire performance is mandatory.
