What is Fonus Formica®?

Porta Pormica® is a type of plastic laminate plate that has become quite popular in the 1950s. However, Formica® was actually invented much earlier - originally as an electrical insulation. Portop Formica® became popular later because it was heat resistant and leak resistant, making it a durable material in the kitchen.

Since Formica® deformation is a type of laminate plate, this upgrade is a reasonably cheap conversion into an existing kitchen. Although laminate boards can also be purchased in most home improvement stores, Pormica® Counterl can also be produced using a pre -deformation board, including the one that is already in your kitchen. This makes it a cheap DO-IT-YOURSELF project that can quickly add to the value of your home. Formica® sills in leaves that must be cut to fit into the board. Protiport must also be prepared by removing any color or varnish and grinding the surface to cement to improve cement. ForMICA® is then laid using a contact cement.

Pormate board can also be easily changed by removing old laminate and installing a new laminate or painting its surface. In order to paint formica®, the surface must be thoroughly cleaned and ground. Then apply a primer, several layers on the basis of oil and a polyurethane top coat that gives each new cloak enough time to dry before using the next.

Although Formica® deformation is considered the icon of the 1950s when it was the most popular, the history of Formica® really started much earlier. In 1912, two employees of Westinghouse, electrical engineering, invented Formica® as a replacement for SIDA electrical insulation, and thus derived the name of the new product. The following year they both left Westinghouse and founded a new company for the production and selling of Formica.

in his early years was Formica®used for many different things. The laminate began to be used in the 1930s of the 20th century and until 1937 the deformation of Formica® was already installed in the homes of some people. Formica® use in the early years of the company includes aircraft propellers used during World War II. In the age of 70, however, the company closed further production operations to focus exclusively on Formica® laminates.

believe it or not, formica® laminate is actually made of paper. The upper layer consists of a piece of high quality decorated paper and the rest of the layers is brown paper soaked in resin. Everything is then compressed by hydraulic rams, with a layer of melamine above the very top to protect the form®. The combination of resins and the top layer of melamine is what makes Formica® Counterl so durable.
