Values from Filippi's HPL technical data sheet (EN 438 series). For 3mm CPL panels this is the closest matching data source — the sheet's own tables run up to 2.0mm, so treat load/mechanical figures as indicative rather than exact. Values describe the laminate material itself, not a fabricated composite panel.
