Product Description
KYDEX® XD is a thermoplastic 3D laminate giving designers the ability to incorporate compound corners, logos, and wire management holes while eliminating unsightly seams and the need for edgebanding typically associated with HPL/TFM surfaces. Its integral color and superior impact resistance minimizes costly mainenance associated with other laminates.

Extreme durability (XD), superior impact, membrane pressable thermoplastic 3D laminate with integral color from 0.76mm-1.02mm (0.030"-0.040") thickness. While providing good definition it surpasses vinyl overlays, high pressure laminates and melamine in resistance to surface and edge impact.
