Joints
– If two Duropal-HPL-Solid panels are to be connected with tongueand-groove,
then the following guidance figures will apply:
groove width a approx. d/3
groove cheek thickness b approx. d/3
tongue length c
≥ 10 mm
board thickness d
≥ 10 mm
– Due to possible dimensional changes, the Duropal-HPL-Solid must be
installed with sufficient play between the tongue and groove.
– Duropal-HPL-Solid of less than 10 mm thickness should not be connected
to tongue-and-groove.
– Connection with a “false tongue“ is also advantageous, as it facilitates
full use of the panel size and makes processing easier.
– Corner connections should only be carried out using brackets or corner
rails, according to the expected load.

4. Cleaning
– Like Duropal-HPL and Duropal-HPL-elements, Duropal-HPL-Solid is
highly resilient and requires nothing in the way of special care.
–Remove light dirt with a soft, damp cloth.
– Heavier dirt can be removed with soap suds or normal household
cleaning products, and although detergents with mildly abrasive
components may be used, we advise against them.
Remove stubborn dirt with an organic solvent (white spirit, acetone
etc.).
