Pure flour-power. Hearty enough to carry you through lunch.
Summary
PoliLam has developed a collection of translucent HPL (High-Pressure Laminate) surfaces with clear edges that allow light to diffuse through both the planes and edges. Unlike conventional laminates with dark edges, these surfaces feature edges that match the surface and have low opacity, enabling light transmission. The collection includes wood grain patterns among other finishes, and when backlit, the surfaces diffuse light evenly through nine different surface options.
