About High-Pressure Laminate (HPL) Product Information

High-Pressure Laminates (HPL) is amongst the best-known surface materials in more than 100 years of history. It offers many irreplaceable features and benefits where no other materials could match.

Care and Maintenance

ICA HPL is reckoned with its least maintenance surface. However as other interior materials, it should not allow any of the reagent/cleansers which contain abrasives, acids or alkalis to remain in contact with the decorative surface.The decorative surface may be cleaned with warm water and mild soaps, such as used for hands or dishes. Remove stubborn stains with a 2-minute exposure of hypochlorite bleach and followed by a clean water rinse.
