What is LaserEdge?
LaserEdge is an edgeband with a pre-applied functional layer that replaces the traditional glue used to apply edgeband, allowing for a much superior and seamless joint between the edgeband and the board. It can be used with all zero-joint edgebanding technologies including hot-air, laser, plasma and NIR.
