Why is bonlex so popular for horizontal applicatons?
The first reason is due to bonlex TC (tough-coat). Bonlex TC is designed to withstand the office and store fixture environment by deflecting scratches. Out TC coat provides protection against stains and harmful UV rays that can cause the film to discolor. In addition to the TC coat we now have a ET (Extra-tough) coat that provides even more protecton. Aside from special coatings, as mentioned above, bonlex is less likely to warp large desk-tops. Q9: I know that bonlex is very popular for horzontal applications but I’m looking for something even more durable. The most durable bonlex thermofoil is the ET coat as far as scratch resistance but if you are looking for increased impact resistance you may have a specially formulated thermofoil designed around the environment that the material will be in. We can increase the thickness to increase the impact resistance, change the top coat to increase stain resistance,etc. No material is perfect for every situation so why not design a thermofoil
