Saviola High Pressure Laminate for Countertops and High-Wear Surfaces
The Saviola HPL sheet in color GSR95 Benevento with Chandler finish is a separately manufactured high-pressure laminate designed to be bonded down by the fabricator onto countertops, post-formed edges, and high-wear vertical surfaces. At 73 inches by 120 inches and 0.9 mm thick, this is the wider of the two stocked sheet sizes, suited to shops running long spans or wide parts without a seam.
Key Features
- 73 inch x 120 inch sheet size — the wider format covers long countertop runs and wide carcass components without an intermediate joint.
- 0.9 mm thickness — a true high-pressure laminate sheet, manufactured separately from the substrate and bonded by the fabricator.
- Chandler finish — a named surface texture and sheen from the Saviola collection, consistent across the sheet for a clean, uniform appearance.
- GSR95 Benevento color — a Saviola color code that coordinates with matching TFL panels and ABS edgebanding stocked in the same decor.
- Sold by the sheet — priced and shipped as a single full sheet, so order quantity maps directly to your cut list.
Where This Sheet Fits the Job
HPL is the right call when the surface needs to go onto a substrate the panel program does not cover, or when a countertop, post-formed nose, or high-contact vertical face demands the extra wear layer a fused surface cannot match. Benevento in the Saviola collection is stocked to accompany the TFL panel program, so a kitchen or bath project can carry the same color from the cabinet box face onto the countertop or open shelf top without a visual break. The 73-inch width is also the format of choice when a single sheet needs to cover a wide island top or a full-depth commercial worksurface in one piece.
Construction and Finish Details
High-pressure laminate is built as a standalone sheet: kraft paper plies consolidated under high pressure, topped with a decorative layer and a protective overlay. That construction is what separates HPL from a thermally fused panel — the sheet arrives unattached, and the fabricator bonds it to the chosen substrate with contact cement or a press. The Chandler finish on this sheet gives the face a consistent surface character without depending on the substrate beneath it. At 0.9 mm, the sheet is thin enough to post-form on appropriate tooling and thick enough to hold a clean edge after trimming. Matching ABS edgebanding is available in the GSR95 Benevento decor to close cut edges on panels in the same color.
Who Orders This Sheet
Cabinet shops running a Saviola TFL panel program reach for the matching HPL when a job includes countertops, open shelf tops, or desk surfaces that need to read as part of the same color scheme. Commercial millwork contractors use the wider 73-inch format when a 60-inch sheet would force a seam on a long run. Designers specifying a coordinated casework package can reference GSR95 Benevento across panels, HPL, and edgebanding for a single-source color story. The sheet is also a practical choice for a fabricator doing post-formed work who needs a verified match to an existing panel order rather than a close third-party color.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is matching edgebanding available in GSR95 Benevento?
Yes. Matching ABS edgebanding is stocked in the Saviola collection for this color. Confirm the specific width you need against your panel thickness when ordering.
Is there also a 60-inch wide sheet available in this color?
Yes. Saviola HPL is stocked in both 73 inch by 120 inch and 60 inch by 120 inch. If your shop cannot handle the wider format, the 60-inch sheet is the right order.
What substrate should I bond this sheet to?
HPL bonds to particleboard, MDF, or plywood depending on the application. Substrate choice drives edge quality and fastener holding, so match it to the job rather than defaulting to one material across all surfaces.
Can this sheet be used for post-forming?
At 0.9 mm the sheet is in the thickness range used for post-formed edges. Confirm that the Chandler finish is rated for post-forming with the technical data before committing a run, as not every finish in an HPL program shares the same flexibility.
Does Saviola HPL come in other colors beyond Benevento?
Yes. The Saviola HPL program covers a range of colors that coordinate with the Saviola TFL panel collection. Check the current stocking list for the full set of available colors and sheet sizes.
One Color Across Every Surface
GSR95 Benevento in the Saviola HPL program lets a single color run from the cabinet panel to the countertop to the edge tape, so the finished project reads as one material rather than a collection of close approximations.
