High Pressure Laminates (HPLs) are found in both traditional and novel applications. Some of the most common and recognisable applications of this laminate include façades, exterior claddings, roofs, balconies etc. While the usage of these beautiful laminates is increasing at a fast pace, the pain points make the customers and manufacturers worry. FunderMax is a leader in the industry, and as the #SurfacesReporter’s team interacts with Mr Ashwani Khanna, Head – Marketing, FunderMax, he confirms that the biggest pain point of HPL revolves around handling of the product at the site. This leads to wastages and installation failures. Based on his expertise, he gladly shares a few tips and tricks to avoid such wastages.
