Fibre-reinforced laminate gains approval
The special decorative laminate Micam LSM 21 has been given DNV (Det Norske Veritas) approval.
The special decorative laminate Micam LSM 21 has been given DNV (Det Norske Veritas) approval Micam LSM 21 can be used in areas where other standard decorative laminates cannot be used because of particular fire issues
This particularly applies to marine applications when fire specifications are very tight.
The laminate has been tested when bonded directly onto honeycomb and given approval for use as Class C Division.
This gives weight advantage over the standard approach of laminate onto aluminium sheet then honeycomb.
Typical weight is 5kg/m2 for 16 mm composite.
It is available in a wide range of colours and patterns and is mechanically very strong because of its glass-fibre reinforcement.
The product is graffiti and wear resistant and finds applications in new build and refurbishment of lightweight vessels.
