⚡ At a Glance
- • Finish Quality: Smooth, consistent seam appearance with a pearlised grey surface that trims cleanly
- • Best for: Tradespeople, joiners and DIYers needing quick, repeatable edge finishing
- • Not ideal for: Uneven chipboard edges unless filled beforehand to create a flat bonding surface
Pre-glued paper-based melamine edging comes as a 50m roll at 0.5mm thickness. Iron-on hot-melt backing bonds to plywood and chipboard for cabinets, doors and shelving.
Quick, Repeatable Edging – Thanks to Pre-glued Hot-Melt Backing
A hot-melt adhesive layer on the backing is activated with a household iron at medium heat, creating an immediate bond to panel edges. No specialist glues or clamps are required for most standard applications.
Fast bonding reduces fiddly drying times and lets multiple panels be finished in a single session, ideal for batch work.
Professional-Looking Finish – With Pearlised Grey Melamine Surface
Paper-based melamine provides a printed and sealed surface that trims to a smooth edge and resists immediate wear. The pearlised grey finish matches standard internal doors and kitchen units for a cohesive look.
Creates a neat seam that blends with surrounding joinery without the need for painting or extended finishing.
Trade-Friendly Length and Gauge – With 50m Roll at 0.5mm Thickness
A 50-metre length offers enough material for multiple jobs while the 0.5mm thickness balances flexibility with a durable profile. The roll format suits both single-site contractors and busy workshops.
Bulk supply reduces the frequency of restocking and the thin gauge handles gentle curves while still trimming cleanly.
