Henkel adhesive solutions for moulded and flush doors are user friendly and convenient to apply to the surface and easy to clean

 Moulded panel doors are the prefabricated doors. These doors may be fabricated to fit various applications and operational requirements. Their design structure usually varies with the application area and might use several different materials.

Depending on the application area, superior quality adhesives have to be used to ensure optimal shelf life, and meet operational parameters.

Henkel’s AQUENCE brand has access to the full range of water-based technologies which includes:

Process
The door panels can be fabricated with a smooth or grained surface. The door panels are primed with a water based primer and anti-metal mark coating, after the pressing process. The anti metal mark coating is applied to keep the surface clean during the whole manufacturing process. The doors are then cut into required size. Independent door manufacturers then make interior Moulded doors from the door panels.
