trespa athlon
Trespa Athlon
is a flat panel for interior applications based on thermosetting resins,
homogeneously reinforced with cellulose fibres and manufactured under
high pressure and temperature. Using special techniques, the panels have
an integrated, decorative surface with melamine-impregnated paper.
Moisture
resistance
Trespa Athlon is not affected by moisture, mould and rot do not occur.
Both the surface and the core are made of thermosetting resins, which
make them impervious to moisture.
Resistance
to scratches and wear and tear
The special surface structure and durability of Trespa Athlon make it
highly scratch resistant. The panel retains its excellent properties for
a very long time, even after intensive use. Tests in accordance with EN
438-2/91 prove that Trespa Athlon is highly resistant to wear. This means
that the panel can be applied where it will be used intensively and cleaned
often.
Easy
to clean
The closed non-porous surface of Trespa Athlon does not attract dirt.
Trespa Athlon panels can be cleaned with either normal cleaning agents
or with strong disinfectants because the material is chemically resistant.
Graffiti can easily be removed with an organic solvent without danger
of affecting the colour.
Chemical
resistance
Trespa Athlon has a good resistance to organic solvents such as acetone,
toluene, xylene and similar substances. The panel is also resistant to
disinfectants and detergents, food juices and dyes. These affect neither
the properties nor the appearance of the panel.
Trespa Athlon
worktops are available in 16mm (standard) and 20mm (special order) thickness.
