Bevel Technologies

The beveled edge is created by milling away part of the top layer of the floor panel and then finishing it with a lacquer. The technology is most suited for creating uniform-color beveled edges.

The beveled edge is created by milling away part of the top layer of the floor panel and then decorating it by transferring a print to the milled surface. This technology enables a motif to be applied to the bevel.

The beveled edge is created by milling away part of the top layer of the floor panel and then decorating it by printing directly onto the milled surface, e.g. by means of an inkjet printer. The technology enables a motif to be extended onto the bevel.

The beveled edge is created by pressing down the decor layer, e.g. during the lamination process. The beveled surface carries the same decor as the surface of the floor panel.

The beveled edge is created by milling away part of the top layer of the floor panel to thereby expose an underlying layer of thermoplastic material. The underlying layer can match or contrast with the color of the top surface. A second technique consists in milling away part of the top layer of the floor panel and decorating it with paint or lacquer.

The beveled edge is created by pressing down the decor layer after the lamination process. The beveled surface carries the same decor as the surface of the floor panel. UNILIN has entered into a cooperation agreement with the company Berry-Alloc in order to increase the patent protection on this technology.

The beveled edge is created by milling away part of the top layer of the floor panel to thereby expose an underlying kraft paper. The kraft paper determines the color of the bevel, which can match or contrast with the top surface.
