What are Phenolic Panels?

Fundermax High-Pressure Laminate (HPL) panels, also known as phenolic panels, provide creative and technical components that offer positive change in the way exterior and interior structures are designed and built.

Fundermax provides many types of phenolic panels to its global customers, for both exterior and interior use. So, what exactly are phenolic panels?

Fundermax panel manufacturing begins with natural, cellulose fiber panels consisting largely of wood that has been processed into "kraft papers." We source these raw materials from vendors certified according to Forestry Stewardship Council standards (FSC) or PEFC. A synthetic polymer (phenolic resin) and a decorative layer are added to the layers of kraft paper and then cured under high heat and pressure.

This results in Fundermax panels being:

  • Easy to install
  • Scratch and graffiti resistant
  • Non-porous and moisture resistant
  • Anti-bacterial
  • UV and weather-resistant
  • Easy to clean
  • Chemical resistant

Fundermax panels do not contain organic halogens (or chlorine, fluorine, bromine, etc.), found in greenhouse gases or PVC. They contain neither asbestos nor wood protection agents (fungicides, pesticides, etc.) and are free of sulfur, mercury, and cadmium.
