KERFKORE®
The Kerfkore flexible panel combines our unique base layer manufacturing process with our LTX Black Flexible Backer to create a highly flexible and extremely stable base layer that allows for fast and easy attachment of high-pressure laminates, veneers, metals and many other semirigid materials. When using Kerfkore, the decorative surfacing material can be applied while flat and then formed into the desired shape achieving a 3 1/2″ radius.
Kerfkore was a 2021 Architizer A+Products finalist.
