What does DPL mean?
DPL stands for “direct pressed laminate”. DPL floorings are the most common type of laminate floorings. DPL floorings have the following build-up: Overlay, décor paper, substrate and backing (balancing material). During manufacture these four laminate flooring components are pressed together under pressure and heat to form starter panels (basic panel) and after a cooling phase are forwarded to the profiling process. Here the panels are cut to the required panel size and are profiled.
