information about
Soflex
The Soflex 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 Soflex, the decorative surfacing material can be applied while flat and then formed into the desired shape achieving a 3 1/2″ radius.
Soflex was previously named Kerfkore. The panel name was updated in June 2024. Learn about the name change here. It’s still the same great panel you know and love, but with an updated name!
Soflex was a 2021 Architizer A+Products finalist.
