In modern construction and interior design, durability and hygiene are essential—especially in high-traffic, wet, or moisture-prone environments. DuraSafe Compact Laminate is specifically engineered to meet these needs, delivering exceptional structural strength alongside built-in antimicrobial protection across every layer of the panel.
Unlike standard laminates, which only offer surface-level defence, our compact laminate integrates high-efficiency antimicrobial agents throughout the core. The result is a compact laminate that actively resists bacteria, mould, and mildew, while maintaining durability under heavy use and frequent cleaning.
What Is DuraSafe Compact Laminate?
Compact laminate is a solid-grade, resin-bonded material manufactured under high pressure using multiple layers of paper impregnated with thermosetting resins. It is widely used in:
- Washroom partitions
- Locker systems
- Healthcare and aged care fitouts
- Education and hospitality spaces
What sets DuraSafe Compact Laminate apart is its unique formulation: antimicrobial agents are infused into every layer of the laminate—not just the top surface. This ensures a deeper, longer-lasting barrier against microbial growth, even when the surface experiences wear or scratches.
Layer-by-Layer Construction: How DuraSafe® Works
Key Features and Benefits Of Compact Laminate
1. Antimicrobial Protection Throughout
DuraSafe incorporates high-efficiency antimicrobial technology into every layer. This deep-level protection helps reduce the spread of harmful microbes, ensuring a safer and cleaner surface in healthcare, food service, and public environments.
2. Exceptional Moisture and Impact Resistance
The phenolic resin core offers excellent moisture resistance and dimensional stability, even in environments with constant humidity or water exposure. It also absorbs impact, reducing the risk of cracking, chipping, or delamination.
3. Long-Term Durability
DuraSafe® is designed for environments where surfaces are subject to frequent use, cleaning, and abrasion. Its dense core and resin-sealed surfaces ensure prolonged performance without fading, swelling, or deterioration.
4. Low Maintenance and Easy to Clean
The non-porous surface resists stains, grime, and cleaning chemicals, making it ideal for busy spaces where ease of cleaning and hygiene compliance are essential.
Colour and Finish Options
DuraSafe Compact Laminate is available in an extensive selection of solid colours, neutrals, and woodgrain finishes allowing it to blend seamlessly into both modern and classic interior schemes.Whether your project calls for minimalist tones or a natural timber look, DuraSafe can be specified to match. Samples are available upon request to assist architects, designers, and builders in selecting the most appropriate finish.
