Laminam 12+
Laminam 12+ is a large-format, (12mm & 20mm) porcelain slab available in lengths up to 128”. It’s a suitable alternative to many of the quartz-based countertops available today, due to the material’s durability, stain resistance and burn resistance, as well as the quality of the printing (particularly with natural stone looks). As a colorfast material, it’s resistant to fading, making it suitable for exterior kitchen and countertop applications. Laminam 12+ can also be used in showers and other wet areas.

ABRASION RESISTANCE
High
This material has relatively high abrasion resistance. It rates as a 7 or higher on the Mohs scale. Quartzite or granite typically fall into this range. This material is less likely to scratch than marble, limestone, onyx, slate, etc.
ABSORPTION
Low
This material is virtually non-porous. No sealer is required and it is less likely to stain.
ACID SENSITIVITY
Minimal
This material is minimally sensitive to acids. It will not acid etch or lose its surface sheen when exposed to acidic liquids such as lemons or tomatoes.
FREEZE-THAW
All Exteriors
Due to this material's Minimal or Moderate Absorption rating, its Abrasion Resistance rating, color fastness and tensile strength, this material is suitable for all exterior applications where freeze-thaw cycles are a concern. Use TCNA standards for setting in exteriors and consult an engineer regarding fastening systems and tensile strength required for your project.
