Hans Schmid utilises Mondi’s aforementioned Ad/Vantage Boost solution to produce high-quality laminates for flooring, kitchen worktops, and more.

Hans Schmid commercial director Björn Lüftner said: “Our collaboration with Mondi is built on trust and transparency. We highly appreciate the team’s expertise and are working together to expand into new markets and continuously improve our products. For us, Mondi is not just a supplier but a long-term strategic partner for the decades ahead.”

Ad/Vantage Boost is claimed to be designed for superior strength and absorbency. It acts as a carrier for resin in the production of laminate layers, which are then pressed under heat.

The paper is produced from unbleached fresh long fibres in Sweden and Austria and comes with the option of Forest Stewardship Council or Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification certification.
