Abstract: A process for achieving décor on surface elements (1) which comprises a decorative upper layer (2) and a supporting core (5). A selected main décor is entered via a terminal, the selected décor emanating from the group consisting of; an archetype digitized via digital camera or scanner and a digitized décor from a database. The dimensions of the surface to be covered by surface elements (1) and the desired dimension of the décor is entered into the terminal. Support programs is then used for calculating the segmentation of the main décor to cover more than one surface element. The result of the selections and calculations is visualised via the terminal.

Abstract: A process for the manufacturing of a decorative surface element, which element comprises a base layer and a decorative upper surface. A wetting repellent lacquer is printed in a predetermined pattern on the decorative upper surface. The wetting repellent lacquer covers only parts of the decorative upper surface. A wear layer of a UV or electron beam curing lacquer is then applied on top of the decorative upper surface which UV or electron beam curing lacquer is repelled from the parts of the surface being covered by the wetting repellent lacquer whereby a surface structure is achieved.

Abstract: A process for the manufacturing of a decorative surface element, which element comprises a base layer and a decorative upper surface. A radiation curing lacquer is printed in a predetermined pattern as an uppermost layer on the decorative upper surface. The radiation curing lacquer covers only parts of the decorative upper surface whereby the lacquer is exposed to radiation whereby it cures. A surface structure is hereby achieved.

Abstract: A process for achieving a wear resistant translucent surface on surface elements (1) which comprises a decorative upper layer (2) and a supporting core (5). A number of layers of UV- or electron-beam curing lacquer are applied on a decorative surface, through a process comprising the steps; i) Applying a base layer of lacquer to a surface weight of 5-50 g/m2. ii) Applying hard particles with an average particle size in the range 10-150 &mgr;m which are sprinkled to an amount of 1-40 g/m2 on the still wet lacquer. iii) Curing the applied layer of lacquer to a desired viscosity. iv) Applying a covering layer of lacquer to a surface weight of 5-150 g/m2. v) Curing the applied layer of lacquer to a desired viscosity. vi) Applying a topcoat layer of lacquer with an additive of 5-35% of hard particles with an average size in the range 50 nm-30 &mgr;m to a surface weight of 2-20 g/m2. vii) Curing the applied layers of lacquer to a desired final viscosity.

Abstract: A process for achieving décor on surface elements (1) which comprises a decorative upper layer (2) and a supporting core (5). A segmentation pattern is selected, the segmentation comprising at least two décor segments on each surface element (1). The shape of the surface element (1), as seen from above, is selected from the group; triangular, quadratic, rectangular, heptagonal, pentagonal and octagonal. The shape of the segments is selected from the group triangular, quadratic, rectangular, heptagonal, pentagonal, octagonal, circular, elliptical, perturbed and irregular. A segment décor is selected for each segment. The segment décor is selected from the group; digitised and simulated depiction of different kinds of wood, minerals and stone, different kinds of fabric, art work and fantasy based décor. Each selection is made on a terminal where the selections emanates from a data base. The selection is visualised via the terminal.
