Abstract
A decorative panel is formed with a flexible or rigid support of different thicknesses and material depending on where same is to be placed attached to a wooden sheet by means of a layer of adhesive. The sheet is milled to define some segments whose repetition gives rise to the motif. Channels in which the sheet is very thin are formed between said segments so that the resulting panel is flexible and is not easily broken due to said channels, whereby the panel adapts in the best way to the different shapes that the application surface may have.
Claims3
A method of making a panel for decorative coverings, comprising the steps of:
- applying an adhesive layer to one of a flexible support and a wooden sheet;
- placing said wooden sheet on said flexible support so that said adhesive layer is disposed between said wooden sheet and said flexible support;
- applying pressure to said wooden sheet and said flexible support such that a greater adherence is obtained;
- and
- treating said wooden sheet by milling such that different segments having preselected geometric features are formed, a plurality of channels being formed between adjacent segments, the thickness of the wooden sheet being considerably smaller at said channels than a maximum thickness of said wooden sheet such that the resulting panel is flexible and will adapt perfectly, without breaking, to curved surfaces or to surfaces having different planes.
