What is Trespa?

Trespa is a high-pressure compact laminate (HPL) manufactured in the Netherlands. It is made from wood fibres and thermosetting resins, compressed under extreme heat and pressure to produce a hard, dense panel with an integral decorative surface.
The result is an extremely durable, UV-stable façade panel widely specified for ventilated rainscreen cladding systems on both new-build and refurbishment projects. Trespa panels require no painting, are resistant to impact, moisture and pollution, and are available in an extensive colour palette.
