A tile-type decorative flooring material includes a surface-processed layer, a clear layer, a design-print layer, an underlayer, and a micro-embossed plastic foam part having a plastic foam layer and an adhesive film layer with micro-embossing. The flooring material provides a significant improvement in terms of slippage between the product and the floor surface in a construction process not using an adhesive.

A decorative laminate lay-up includes a decorative laminate sheet assembly composed of an exterior overlay paper layer, a decorative layer, and a core layer. The decorative laminate lay-up includes a texture imparting member in the form of a textured release sheet including a top side and a bottom side. The textured release sheet includes a textured matte surface formed on the bottom side thereof and ultimately applied the textured matte surface to a resulting decorative laminate.

Wet-on-wet coating processes are provided to produce multilayer articles. First and second coating materials are sequentially applied on to a structured substrate surface to form a skin layer directly over the structured substrate surface and a bulk layer over the skin layer. The conformability of the skin layer can be adjusted to provide desired surface and bulk properties.

A pressing element for manufacturing laminate panels includes a metal plate with at least two sections that exhibit a surface structure suitable for forming a structure on one of the laminate panels, and having a first zone. The pressing element has separate markings for orienting the first zone, and/or in that the surface structure is obtained by way of etching, whereas the first zone is provided with a chamber by means of a milling operation, and/or in that the surface structure defines a lowest point and a highest point. The first zone includes a first chamber located at a depth below the highest point and at most 0.3 mm below the lowest point.

A multi-layered product having an embossed interior layer is disclosed along with a method of making the product. The multi-layered product has a first layer with an interior surface, a second layer with an interior surface, and a third layer sandwiched between the first and second layers. The third layer has a first surface and a second surface, and has a thickness there between. The third layer is embossed into a waffle pattern having a plurality of protrusions and a plurality of recesses. Each of the plurality of protrusions and recesses is adjacently aligned and horizontally offset from one another. The plurality of protrusions form a horizontal plane, at the first surface, which is positioned above a horizontal plane formed by the plurality of recesses, at the first surface. The product also has an adhesive which secures the three layers together.

Floor panel, which includes a substrate and a top layer provided above, and preferably directly above, the substrate, where the top layer includes a décor layer, a thermoplastic wear layer, and a lacquer layer provided above, and preferably directly above, the wear layer, and where the floor panel has an upper surface showing a relief, where the relief has a maximum relief depth which is larger than 100 microns, and where the wear layer and the lacquer layer are embossed in order to form the relief.
