Frequently Asked Questions

Both thicknesses are solid phenolic resin cores with decorative melamine faces manufactured under EN 438-4 standards. 12mm is the traditional commercial benchmark in Qatar, while 13mm provides extra bending stiffness and screw-holding capacity, increasingly preferred by consultants for high-traffic environments like shopping malls, international schools, and sports stadiums.

Yes. Solid compact laminate has an impermeable, homogeneous phenolic core with zero internal voids and a density exceeding 1,400 kg/m³. It will not swell, soften, rot, or delaminate even when exposed to continuous standing water or high-pressure spray cleaning.

Our solid compact laminate panels meet European EN 13501-1 Class B-s1, d0 fire retardancy standards and ASTM E84 Class A/B surface burning characteristics, making them fully compliant with Qatar Civil Defence and Qatar Construction Specifications (QCS).

Particleboard or MR-MDF relies on edge banding glued to a wood-fiber core. In Qatar washrooms, where frequent wet mopping occurs, water inevitably breaches the glued seams, leading to swelling, bacterial growth, and permanent structural failure within 12–24 months. Solid compact laminate contains no timber core or glued edge banding.

Our estimation department delivers comprehensive, itemized BOQ unit-rate quotations within 24 to 48 hours upon receipt of architectural layout drawings (CAD or PDF) and project specifications.

Yes. We deliver formal submittal sample presentation boxes directly to your site office or consultant meetings. These include cutaway sections of 12mm/13mm compact laminate with CNC-beveled edges, authentic color swatches, and full-scale stainless steel ironmongery.

Standard stock colors (charcoal grey, light grey, white, cream, and select architectural woodgrains) are typically fabricated and ready for site mobilization within 7 to 14 working days following approved laser site measurements and signed shop drawings.

We offer both procurement models. Main contractors can select complete turnkey delivery and installation executed by our trained site crews, or precision-machined, flat-packed supply-only packages complete with numbered panels, pre-drilled hardware slots, and CAD assembly drawings.

Yes, provided that adequate structural timber or heavy-gauge steel backing plates (minimum 18mm marine plywood or 1.2mm cold-rolled steel backing) were installed inside the drywall cavity prior to boarding and tiling. Standard plasterboard toggle anchors are not adequate for commercial dynamic loads.

Our heavy-duty Grade 304/316 stainless steel foot pedestals include an internal threaded collar providing ±20mm of vertical height adjustment. This allows installers to compensate for floor falls toward gully traps while maintaining perfectly level top headrail elevations.

Finished floor tiling, grouting, and wall tiling must be 100% completed and signed off. Sanitary fixtures (WC pans, flush valves) should either be mounted or have clear centerlines marked, and the washroom core must be enclosed and dust-free.

For coastal developments in Lusail Marina, West Bay, and Al Wakrah, or for wet shower cubicles, Grade 316 marine-grade stainless steel is strongly recommended. Grade 316 contains 2–3% molybdenum, which prevents pitting and tea-staining from airborne salt chlorides.

Because compact laminate is non-porous, inks cannot penetrate the resin core. Permanent marker and graffiti can be wiped away using 70% isopropyl alcohol, methylated spirits, or acetone applied to a microfiber cloth, followed by rinsing with clean soapy water.

Yes. Our heavy-duty gravity-action hinges feature adjustable internal nylon cams that can be set to rest in an open position (typically 15° to 30°) when unoccupied, signaling vacancy to users in busy public washrooms, or fully closed for complete privacy.
