Abstract
A thin abrasion resistant decorative thermosetting laminate of postforming quality is glued to a longitudinal carrier. The carrier preferably consists of a fibre board or a particle board with a rectangular cross section and at least two opposite rounded-off edges. One or more floor strips with the same or different cross section is machined from the laminate clad carrier.
Claims11
A process for the production of a floor strip, said process comprising gluing a thin decorative thermosetting laminate of postforming quality comprising hard particles which impart an abrasion resistance to the laminate, measured as an IP value, on a longitudinal carrier, which carrier consists of at least one member selected from the group consisting of fiber board and a particle board, said carrier having a rectangular cross-section and at least two opposite rounded-off edges, wherein, in said gluing step the thermosetting laminate of postforming quality in one piece is glued on an upper side and on two long sides of the carrier via the rounded-off edges to form a laminate coated carrier, and subsequently machining said laminate coated carrier into one or more floor profiles, which may be the same or different cross-section, said profiles being selected from the group consisting of dilation profile, transition profile and finishing profile, from the laminate coated carrier to produce a floor strip.
