PAPEROCK TACTILE FAQ’s

NEW: Paperock TACTILE

High quality birch plywood is layered with a German engineered HPL (high pressure laminate) on the top side and the same coloured layer on the underside.


Material

  • Using high quality exterior grade Birch plywood, Paperock TACTILE is layered with a German engineered HPL (high pressure laminate) on the top side and the same coloured layer on the underside.

    The Plywood is FSC certified

  • No, Paperock TACTILE is a HPL (high pressure laminate) on the top side bonded to premium birch ply.

    There is no silica in any of of Paperock’s products.

  • A high-performing surface bringing together the precision of German engineering and the aesthetic of Australian interior design.

    Anti-fingerprint and scratch resistant technology keeps this surface looking pristine, while low-light reflectivity creates a beautiful ultra-matte finish, perfect for the home.

    While being impact and water resistant, and laminated to decorative premium birch ply, the new colourway includes 7 shades.

  • Paperock TACTILE only omits low VOC’s.

  • We recommend the edges of Paperock TACTILE be sealed with Osmo oil.

    The HPL surface does not need any finishing.

  • Yes, a very minute amount. It is comparable to a natural timber bench.

  • Due to the ply core, we don’t recommend Paperock TACTILE for an outdoor environment.

    Paperock SOLID is more suited to outdoors.

  • Due to the ply core, we don’t recommend Paperock TACTILE for extremely wet areas such as undermount sinks.

    However, the surface is impervious to water so is suitable for benchtops and cabinetry in kitchens and laundries.

    Paperock SOLID is more suited to areas where water will continually get on the edge.

  • Because Paperock TACTILE has the ply core it is lighter and easier to cut for complex joinery.

    Our customers often use it for kitchen drawers & doors, shelving and furniture.

Fabrication

  • The ply edge only. Please see our Care & Maintenance Guide for instructions on buffing out light scratches.

  • Paperock can be cut with a panel saw, CNC and track saw with a quality blade.

    You will need to sand an aris on the exposed edges to avoid any chipping. Please see our Installation Guide for instructions.
