General Description

McKillican EcoPureTFMelamine on NAUF or NAF Certified Cores

Melamine decorative panels consist of melamine resin saturated decorative papers, thermally fused under heat and pressure to a substrate of particleboard, or MDF (medium density fiberboard). The Thermally Fused Melamine (TFM) process permanently bonds the paper and the board; there is NO GLUE LINE to delaminate. The panels resists warping, bowing, scratches, stains, heat, steam, burnishing, abrasion, chip-out and damage due to excessive wear. Melamine Decorative Panels perform like high pressure laminate at a fraction of the cost.

IMPORTANT NOTE FOR DESIGN PROFESSIONALS
TO ENHANCE your DESIGN and AVOID getting stuck with the color WHITE for melamine or a CHANGE ORDER, understand: On average, for a few dollars more per cabinet you can specify a melamine color to enhance your design and provide better performance (patterns do not show the wear) for cabinet interiors. BUT YOU must specify a color or color group.
