  • Publication number: 20240342948
    Abstract: A building panel including a multi-layered substrate having a back side layer with lignocellulosic particles and a binder, an intermediate layer with lignocellulosic particles and a binder, arranged on the back side layer, and a front side layer with lignocellulosic particles and a binder, arranged on the intermediate layer. The building panel further includes a front side wood veneer element attached to the front side layer of the multi-layered substrate, and a balancing element attached to the back side layer of the multi-layered substrate. The back side layer was formed from a first mixture, the intermediate layer was formed from a second mixture and the front side layer was formed from a third mixture where lignocellulosic particles from the second mixture and lignocellulosic particles from the third mixture are mixed, at least in a border area between the intermediate layer and the front side layer.

  • Publication number: 20240342949
    Abstract: A building panel, such as a floor panel, or wall panel, having a multi-layered substrate including a back side layer comprising lignocellulosic particles and a binder, an intermediate layer including lignocellulosic particles and a binder which is arranged on the back side layer, and a front side layer including lignocellulosic particles and a binder, and which is arranged on the intermediate layer. The back side layer was formed from a first mixture, the intermediate layer was formed from a second mixture and the front side layer was formed from a third mixture. The building panel further has a mechanical locking device arranged along at least one edge portion of the building panel where the mechanical locking device is configured for horizontal and/or vertical locking of similar or essentially identical building panels in an assembled position.
