Compact laminate is an innovative material that when used for outdoor furniture offers a contemporary, clean and low maintenance finish. Not only is it a stylish material, but it is also an incredibly durable surface that can withstand exposure to the outdoor environment and daily use.

Compact laminate is made from layers of recycled paper fibers that have been dipped in resin and dried. These layers are stacked and sandwiched between laminate before being compressed under high pressure and heated to permanently meld together. Not only does this manufacturing process ensure an incredibly strong and dense structure, but it also enables the laminate to be made of varying thicknesses ranging between 3-18mm.
