Material Composition | Furniture edging, cabinetry | Industry Standard: Wood veneer (40-90 MPa tensile strength) Our Base: PVC (35-55 MPa) Our Advanced: Reinforced PVC + fiberglass (60+ MPa) | ▲ Base: Lightweight, cost-effective. ▲▲ Advanced: 60% stronger than wood (ASTM D638) | Base: Less aesthetic appeal than wood. Advanced: Slightly heavier than pure PVC |
Chemical Resistance | Labs, kitchens, industrial settings | Industry Standard: Wood (non-resistant to solvents) Our Base/Advanced: Passed ASTM D543 for 50+ chemicals (30min+ exposure) | ▲▲ Both tiers: Resists acids, oils, and alcohols (e.g., acetone) | Not suitable for extreme corrosives (e.g., concentrated sulfuric acid) |
Tensile Strength | Heavy-duty equipment, structural panels | Industry Standard: 40 MPa (wood) Our Base: 35-55 MPa Our Advanced: 60+ MPa | ▲ Base: Meets basic durability needs. ▲▲ Advanced: Outperforms wood by 50% (ISO 527-2) | Base may fail in extreme stress (e.g., industrial machinery) |
Customization | Bespoke furniture, architectural projects | Industry Standard: Limited to standard widths Our Base/Advanced: Custom widths (5-50mm) + shapes (curved/angled) | ▲▲ Both tiers: Tailored to unique designs (e.g., circular tables) | Requires 2-3x longer lead time for non-standard orders |
Installation Ease | DIY projects, quick repairs | Industry Standard: Requires adhesives/glues Our Base: Pre-glued edges Our Advanced: Snap-fit interlocking design | ▲▲ Advanced: Installs 70% faster (no tools needed) | Base: Less secure than Advanced for high-vibration environments |
Cost Efficiency | Budget-sensitive projects, mass production | Industry Standard: Wood (€5-10/m) Our Base: €3-6/m Our Advanced: €8-12/m | ▲ Base: 40% cheaper than wood. ▲ Advanced: 20% lower lifecycle cost (longer durability) | Advanced: Higher upfront cost for small-scale projects |
