Coverage & How Much You Need:
Flat HPL sheets cover from 20 sq. ft. (30 x 96) to 60 sq. ft. (60 x 144) before trim; the 1/2 in. 568 compact panels cover 50 to 60 sq. ft. and the 3/8 in. 572 panel covers 60 sq. ft. Size the job by deck area plus edges and splash, adding waste for sink and cooktop cutouts.
Fit and Compatibility:
Flat grades bond to particleboard or MDF with contact adhesive and pair with a Wilsonart backer sheet; compact panels are self-supporting and need no substrate. Postforming grades require postforming equipment; compact panels cannot be postformed.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
Q: What is included in one order?
A: One laminate sheet or compact panel in the grade and size you select, in 60 Matte Finish.
Q: What is the difference between 568 and 572 compact?
A: Both are self-supporting compact panels; 568 is listed in 1/2 in. thickness and 572 in 3/8 in., so pick 3/8 in. where lighter weight or thinner profiles are wanted.
Q: Are there fire-rated options?
A: Yes, 604 Fire Rated Vertical HPL and 605 Fire Rated Postform HPL are listed for code-required interior applications.
Q: Can this go in a lab or clinic?
A: The 390 Chemsurf grade is intended for chemical-resistant surfaces such as lab worktops.
Q: How do I finish the edges of compact panels?
A: Route edges square or with a small radius using sharp carbide tooling; no edge banding is required since the panel is colored through, though sources do not state edge treatment.
Expert Verdict — Reviewed by the SuperArbor Pro Desk
Carbon EV's dark grey-blue tone hides seams and wear, making it a strong choice for high-traffic casework, partitions and worktops. Use the 3/8 in. 572 panel for lighter self-supporting builds and 1/2 in. 568 where stiffness over spans matters. On flat countertop work, always balance with backer laminate to prevent bow. Compact panels are heavy and brittle at corners; support the full sheet on a scoring table and drill relief holes at inside corners of cutouts.
Cut compact panels with sharp carbide tooling and proper dust extraction; wear eye protection, gloves and a dust mask, as edges and chips are sharp.
