ADA Applique material softens sufficiently at about 200°F (93.33°C), which enables bending, should that be desired. It can also be drilled, sawed, sheared, nailed and bonded to itself or other materials.
Most of the colors will exhibit slight fading under prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. There are, however, those which tend to fade more severely. This material is designed for use where no direct extreme exposure is encountered. (For exterior ADA applications, see our Ultra-Matte line.)
The material was tested for flammability by Underwriters Laboratories. It is rated at 94 HB on the UL 94 test.
