Laminate is a material consisting of several layers, each of which plays its own role in the production process and affects the properties of the final product. Depending on their intended use, laminates can vary in thickness, color, texture, and mechanical and chemical properties.
The basic component of laminate is a decorative layer that gives it the appearance and texture of, for example, wood, stone or metal. This layer is protected by another layer, called an overlay, which protects the surface from scratches and abrasion.
