Flexi on wood, wood composite and furniture
- Bring the natural surface to room temperature before unpacking.
- The ORGANOID products on the laminating paper or veneer reinforcement fleece can be processed like HPL with the usual machinery used by carpenters.
- During the pressing process, a release paper should be used to protect the pressing plate and the pressing temperature should not exceed 60°C in order to protect the positive properties of the natural fibres.
- We recommend a white glue for processing in a veneer press.
- Observe guide values:
- Pressing pressure: approx. 1 kg/cm²
- Glue application: approx. 100 g/m²
- Pressing time: approx. 15 min
- Check and visually inspect the membranes for deviations and/or defects before processing and, if necessary, process them in an overturned manner.
- Preliminary tests/sample tests
- Check the sheets for deviations and/or defects BEFORE processing
- Cut to the desired size with a cutter knife and join the edges using the double seam cutting method
- Apply adhesive (e.g. white glue) evenly and without gaps to the wood-based material and not to the fleece. Adjust the amount of glue according to the substrate material, as the fleece absorbs moisture and this can lead to glue bleed-through. A pre-test is always recommended when using our products for the first time
- Apply adhesive in longitudinal and transverse direction using a glue roller
- Place the surface on the workpiece and be sure to cover it with the enclosed release paper so as not to damage the natural surface
- Do not exceed a pressing temperature of 60°C
- Remove the finished workpiece from the open press as quickly as possible and allow to cool evenly
- Cut off excess material or bend around the edge.
- Final work: Clean the surface with a fine cloth or clean brush and remove excess natural fibres.
- In general, most natural surfaces have very little effect on warping due to their low thickness.
- For sensitive applications, we are happy to offer uncoated (blank) webs of the laminating paper or the appropriate backing for the material used as a backing if required.
- Store the product in closed, dry rooms at normal temperatures (approx. 20°C, 30-60% relative humidity) protected from light.
- Recommendation for storage:
- Roll goods: hanging storage system (e.g. paternoster)
- Single decks: horizontal position (e.g. drawer system)
- Any deviations and/or defects in the goods must be reported to ORGANOID immediately in writing. Please check whether the delivery has any deviations and/or defects before installation.
- Natural surfaces from ORGANOID consist of natural plant fibres, which is why individual products of the same type may differ slightly in colour, smell or fibre composition.
- Dimensional deviations of up to +/- 2% are technically unavoidable with these natural products. Minor deviations in the area of these biological characteristics therefore do not constitute defects and do not provide a basis for warranty claims.
