D.Fin® Thermoform is a thermoplastic polypropylene film, which is printed on using water-based dyes. Its benefits lie above all in the absence of harmful plasticisers with simultaneously optimum plasticity. At Plant 1 in Laichingen, SÜDDEKOR carries out polychrome printing of the films, where the supplier is able to draw on extensive décor experience and a huge range of décor structures. At Plant 2, the production of mono-coloured variants is possible up to maximum width of 2,700 millimetres.Then the PP films are lacquered using water-based or electron beam hardening processes.
As a result, SÜDDEKOR is able to offer metamerism-free décor systems from a single source, as the same colour system is used for melamine products, finish films and PP films. D.Fin® Thermoform is used with continuously-operating laminating lines such as roller hot laminating systems. The film is also perfect for laminating systems and membrane and vacuum presses. And there are also few limitations when it comes to selecting the adhesive: PUR, urea, PVAc and melt adhesives all work equally well. In addition to surface lamination, D.Fin Thermoform can also be used for coating. For this reason, this new product is the perfect solution for all living space applications.
