In 1983, Melamite was launched.In 1983, BLD also produced the first laminated board using the high pressure presses of the main production line. In 1985, the short-cycle press was commissioned. This state-of-the-art press is capable of processing a raw chipboard from selection to pressingc and cleaning and stacking in under 90 seconds.The final product is a quality surface that commands the most respect, and is still the number one laminated board inspite having lost its monopoly within the first few yearsof its launch.
