Impregnation leader HR Industries has launched two stage impregnation techniques, which will save the HPL cost to Rs. 20 per sheet, says Mr. Hitesh Ruparel, MD of HR Industries. “Using a mixture of UF/MF resin is a bad practice in which UF resin comes on to the surface of the design paper and spoils the surface properties of the laminate, informs Mr. Hitesh
Dipping and coating technology is proven, economical and is adopted throughout the world. Machine is user friendly and easy to run. Following calculations demonstrate the same.
