What are the differences between Flimba Limited Pro Laminate and Formica? These two brands are similar in many ways, but they have distinct aesthetic differences. The differences lie in the type of finish and the solids, graphic patterns, and other features available. You must know your options if you are considering switching to a new laminate.

Laminate

Laminate Flimba Pro Laminate is a decorative laminate product. It is a high-pressure laminate made from phenolic and melamine resin. It is FDA-approved for food contact and carries the IMO Res. A 653 (16) certificate.

Formica

If you are considering installing Formica on Flimba Pro Laminate, you have many great options available. The laminate is a high-pressure laminate that combines a decorative surface and durable melamine overlay. It can be bonded to various substrates, including particle board, plywood and MDF. You can also choose from multiple laminate colours. The laminate will generally match the original Formica colour books and swatches.

Since Formica was the first to manufacture laminate tops, several manufacturers have entered the laminate countertop market. However, Formica still holds the top spot. Laminate countertops have come a long way, but they still have the stigma of being low-budget materials. However, if you have a limited budget and wish to impact your space significantly, laminate countertops could be the perfect solution.

Postforming Grade

Flambeau Pro Laminate Postforming Grade is designed for use as tabletops and countertops. It is made with a unique process that allows it to be formed into various shapes and sizes. The process starts by cutting the material to size and shaping the edge detail. Then the material is coated with an adhesive. The substrate and laminate are then aligned. Next, the laminate is heated and moulded around the substrate. Finally, the backsplash is cut off from the main section when finished.

There are two types of laminate: Postforming Grade and Vertical Grade. Postforming Grade is typically thicker than Vertical Grade and is better suited for horizontal surfaces. Two kinds of laminates have different uses.
