Q: What is thermo-fused?

A: Thermo-fused laminate technology uses heat and pressure to produce a permanent thermal bond between the melamine laminate and a 1” high-density substrate. Delamination is simply not possible. Tops are resistant to scratches, abrasions, stains, chipping, radiant heat, steam and mild chemicals.

Q: What is a powder-coat finish? A: Powder-coating is a “dry paint” application process in which finely ground particles of pigment and resin are electrostically charged and sprayed onto a surface, which is then baked-on (cured) to set the coating. The advantage of powder-coating is that it is substantially thicker and therefore more durable, that a “wet paint” coating.

Q: What is Texron?

A: It’s the brand name for Textilene, which is an open weave mesh vinyl coated polyester yarn material. We make all of our cot covers out of Texron (Textilene). It carries a 10 year warranty!
