Abstract: The invention relates to a laminate (10; 10a) having a core (12) containing a thermoplastic polymer and having metal cover layers (16) disposed on either side of the core (12), each cover layer (16) being connected to the core (12) via an adhesive layer (14) having at least one polymer layer (15).

Abstract: The invention relates to a cladding system (100) for a wall (1), the cladding system (100) having a plate-shaped cladding element (50) connectable to a fastening profile (10) on two opposite longitudinal or transverse sides, the fastening profile (10) being configured to anchor the cladding system (100) to the wall (1), the cladding element (50) having a preferably strip-shaped fastening section (60, 62), which is bent in relation to a base surface section (64) of the cladding element (50), on the two longitudinal or transverse sides disposed in operative connection with a fastening profile (10), the fastening section (60, 62) interacting with a complementary, groove-shaped first or second reception section (16, 18) on the fastening profile (10), the two reception sections (16, 18) on the fastening profile (10) being disposed on the fastening profile (10) on the side opposite to a fastening surface (14) for the wall (1) on the fastening profile (10).

Abstract: The invention relates to a cladding system (100) for a wall (1), having a plate-shaped cladding element (50) which can be connected on two opposite longitudinal or transverse sides to a respective fastening profile (10), wherein the fastening profile (10) is designed to anchor the cladding system (100) on the wall (1), wherein the cladding element (50) has, on the two longitudinal or transverse sides arranged in operative connection with a fastening profile (10), in each case a preferably strip-shaped fastening portion (60, 62) which interacts with a complementary, groove-shaped receiving portion (16, 18) on the fastening profile (10), wherein the two receiving portions (16, 18) on the fastening profile (10) are arranged on the fastening profile (10) on the side opposite to a fastening surface (14) for the wall (1) on the fastening profile (10), wherein the first receiving portion (16) extends at least substantially parallel to the fastening surface (14) or to abase surface portion (64) of the cladding elemen

Abstract: A high bulk laminated board is produced using one or more embossed plies. A method of producing the laminated board comprises: embossing first and second plies to produce first embossed projections extending from first sides of the first and second plies; placing adhesive on the first embossed projections on the first side of each of the first and second embossed plies; bringing the first and second plies together such that the first embossed projections on the first and second embossed plies are aligned; applying pressure to the first side of each of the first and second embossed plies to cause the first and second embossed plies to adhere together to form a composite ply; and adhering first and second flat outer plies onto first and second sides of the composite ply. Corresponding apparatus is provided.
