HDF Compacmel plus 01Q Gris tortora: wat is dat?

HDF Compacmel plus 01Q Gris tortora are strong panels that are ideal for interior applications where higher humidity and long-term heavier loads are involved. These strong panels have a core of HDF and an elegant FINSA melamine top layer.

Melamine top layer

The furniture panels have a strong and hard melamine top layer, which gives the wood panels an attractive appearance and makes the wood resistant. The melamine top layer has a high density, which also gives it its hard and strong properties. A melamine top layer is water-repellent, easy to wipe off with a cloth and to some extent heat-resistant. Properties that are very pleasant for any interior application! By using colour matching, materials such as HPL can be delivered in the same colour and texture. This makes your project even more versatile! 

In short, the advantages of melamine faced board material:

• Ready to use immediately
• Strong and water-repellent
• Fixed colour
• Wide choice of colours and textures
• One-to-one colour match with HPL and ABS strip

HDF carrier

HDF is a strong, hard-pressed board. The name HDF stands for High Pressure Laminate. HDF is the powerful brother of MDF. Due to the high pressure applied during pressing, the board is sturdier and stronger than MDF. Because its absorbency decreases as the pressure increases, this board is also more resistant to moisture than normal MDF. This makes HDF, also because of its price, an excellent alternative to HPL compact boards.

The sturdiness of HDF makes these Compacmel Plus boards suitable for rooms where humidity and intensive use of furniture play a major role. You can think of bathrooms and kitchens but also, for example, changing rooms in gyms or saunas. HDF carriers are not waterproof and therefore not suitable for direct exposure to large amounts of moisture or for outdoor applications. For these applications, HPL compact boards or MDF tricoya are better suited.

HDF vs. MDF

We know MDF as a very universally useful panel. HDF is a somewhat less well-known panel, but it does have a number of advantages over MDF. For instance, it is a lot firmer than MDF and, without special gluing, also more moisture-resistant. The choice between MDF and HDF is mainly made based on the use of the furniture. This is because HDF is more expensive than MDF, but much more durable in use, making it last much longer as a door or worktop than MDF. In short, if it is used purely decoratively or sporadically, MDF is the right option. Does it involve furniture with a high intensity of use? Then HDF is the proper choice.

Application examples with MDF

• Furniture in general
• Framing
• Decorative applications
• Wall panels
• Cabinets

Examples of applications with HDF

• Doors
• Mudguards
• Furniture with intensive use: lockers, worktops, etc.
• Wall panels for areas with higher humidity, such as toilets and kitchens.
• Counters, counters and tables in public areas such as schools, restaurants and hospitals.

Cut-to-size FINSA Compacmel Plus panels

FINSA is inspired by the convergence of technology and creativity. Whereas the extensive product line of superPan panels also bets on the different decors, Compacmel Plus mainly bets on the powerful properties of the carrier. With Compacmel Plus, FINSA offers a perfect alternative solution between MDF furniture panel and HPL compact boards. Its moisture-resistant properties, high load-bearing capacity and advantageous production costs create an interesting product. This makes FINSA a major player in the furniture panel department. Looking for a different decor? Other manufacturers of melaminated boards include Pfleiderer, UNILIN and MAXXI.

FINSA Compacmel Plus with melamine coating

FINSA has a wide range of melaminated furniture panels. Compacmel Plus is one of them. These Compacmel Plus melaminated boards are supplied on an HDF backing. The melamine top layers are antibacterial, making them a suitable choice for bathrooms, classrooms, restaurants or changing rooms. The melamine decors, better known as the Gama Duo melamine collection, all have a one-to-one colour match with HPL and ABS edging. The technical properties of the top layers as well as FINSA's unique carriers such as superPan and Compacmel Plus are thus seamlessly interchangeable! The strength of HDF makes Compacmel Plus boards very suitable for rooms where moisture and intensive furniture use play a major role.

Compacmel Plus is thus an ideal solution for the handyman looking for a golden middle ground between melaminated MDF and HPL compact boards. It has the strength and machinability close to HPL compact boards, but at the same time a lower price tag. Although the boards cannot be used outdoors, it can be used fine in rooms with high humidity. The HDF core provides a strong base for load-bearing capacity. Due to the more compact pressing of the HDF, screws also grip the material better than with normal MDF.

The different top layers of Compacmel Plus

FINSA offers a variety of textures and colours with Compacmel Plus. The colours of Compacmel Plus can be combined one-to-one with the large range of superPan. As both product lines use a mix of textures and colours, you will always find a suitable combination. The colours and textures are indicated by the colour code, which always consists of a combination of three numbers and letters. This is followed by a texture code consisting of two letters or numbers. Finally, there is a descriptive name that should capture the mood of the texture and colour.

Machining of HDF furniture panel

Compacmel Plus with a melamine top layer has the advantage of being a highly workable carrier board. This is because the core is made of HDF, a more compact and stronger variant of MDF. The material splinters less and holds screws better than normal MDF. Keep in mind, though, that the melamine top layer is therefore sensitive when you start working on it! When mounting the board material, it is advisable to screw the screws at the back or at the bottom (make sure not to go through the material!). This way, the screw holes are not visible, and you avoid visible splinters of the melamine. Are you going to mount on the visible side? Then first place masking tape on the place where you will be working on the board. This way, the tape catches the first contact between the tools and the board and the risk of splintering is reduced.

Specific applications of HDF furniture panels

Furniture panel is also known as melaminated or decorative board material. It is a versatile product, so it can be used for many purposes. Bathrooms, libraries, restaurants and cafés, but also changing rooms in gyms and swimming pools are transformed into elegant and practical spaces with the right combination of colours and textures. Furniture panel can be used for many interior applications with its water-repellent top layer. By using melamine-coated board material, you no longer need to paint the board and have the most beautiful decors in no time.
