A covering element includes a carrier plate including a mineral material, wherein the carrier plate is formed as a flat mineral carrier plate having a thickness between 3 and 15 millimeters (mm), complementary recesses and protrusions formed, respectively, on opposing lateral edges of the carrier plate, such that, in an assembled condition of two or more covering elements, the complementary recesses and protrusions are configured to engage with complementary protrusions and recesses, respectively, of another of the two or more covering elements, and a decor layer with a polymer and on a front side of the carrier plate. The décor layer includes at least at least one, color pigment-containing, printing layer.

A method is provided for manufacturing panels with a substrate and a decorative top layer that may include a printed motif and a transparent or translucent protective layer formed there above. The method may involve applying a first and a second finishing layer for forming a first and a second portion of the protective layer. Recesses may be formed at the surface of the second finishing layer. Hard particles may be provided in the first finishing layer.

A three-dimensional surface covering system includes a surface mounting system configured to bond to a mounting surface, the surface mounting system having a panel to secure to the mounting surface; an attachment system; and an aesthetical covering removably secured to the panel via the attachment system; the aesthetical covering can be removed and changed as desired.

The present invention provides for a method of creating a lustrous surface in opaque materials using ridge angles, and valleys of varying depths cut, imprinted or pressed into the opaque material. The combination of the light reflecting ridges, angles to reflect more or less light, and a shadow effect arising from a combination of the valley depths and the angle of the ridges allows one to use light and shadow to create a pattern or series of patterns in the opaque materials. These patterns are created using a process whereby a design is first created, then cut into a master blank using some type of manual or computer-aided method. Next, this pattern is inlaid, pressed, or imprinted into a blank panel composed of the opaque material. In some embodiments, this opaque material is allowed to set, thus creating a finished article of manufacture in the form of a panel.

A method of manufacturing a decorative surface includes the steps of a) impregnating a paper substrate with a thermosetting resin; b) jetting a colour pattern with one or more aqueous inkjet inks including a polymer latex binder on the thermosetting resin impregnated paper; c) drying the one or more aqueous inkjet inks; and d) heat pressing the thermosetting paper carrying the colour pattern into a decorative surface.
