Seaboard Composite Panels
Seaboard is a high density polyethylene
(HDPE) sheet formulated to meet the specific requirements of marine and other
outdoor environments. Seaboard Lite is UV stable and will withstand the elements
without rotting, delaminating or peeling like wood. CPC Seaboard Lite is
manufactured as a continuous extrusion. It is not press laminated. Thus, it is
unconditionally guaranteed not to delaminate during the service life of the
end-product. Grip-X is a UV stabilized high density polyethylene (HDPE)
sheet formulated to meet demanding conditions of the marine industry. Grip-X is
manufactured with a special surface treatment and stipulated pattern to achieve
a slip resistant surface as compared with the standard surface and other high
density polyethylene marine grade products.
Due to its advanced formulation, CPG Seaboard is the most rigid and
dimensionally stable HDPE (composite) product available. A unique pre-production
treatment gives every sheet the enhanced ability to resist the harmful effects of salt
water, moisture and direct sunlight (UV degradation). Seaboard gets its superior
strength and toughness because it's manufactured as a continuous extrusion - not press
laminated - so there's no structural weak spots where delamination could occur.
Because the sheets are extruded, they are stress relieved and tend to stay much flatter
and stable than other composite panels.
Seaboard is available in different specifications:
1) Full Density: Solid all the way through for
when you need that nice clean edge with excellent surface quality. As a standard feature, the Full Density panels are UV stabilized for maximum
performance.
Features and Benefits:
- Stability Seaboard is stress relieved and UV stabilized
specifically for harsh marine environments.
- Strength Seaboard is the toughest marine high density
polyethylene (HDPE) available on the market.
- Inert Seaboard is impervious to the salt and moisture on
boats.
- Thermal resistance Seaboard has a high heat distortion
temperature to resist "softening".
- Hardness Seaboard resists scratching better the the other
marine polymers.
- Food Safe Seaboard sheets meet FDA requirements for use in
applications where they may come in contact with food.
- Consistency Seaboard sheet are extruded and exhibit consistent
color and dimensional characteristics.
2) Lite - The same
quality surface, but with a "foamed" center that reduces weight from the panel.
Also, this product is much less expensive than the Full Density, so it is an
excellent alternative when you don't need that perfect edge. This panel is also UV
stabilized.
Features and Benefits:
- Inert Seaboard Lite is inert in marine environments and is not
effected by moisture and most cleaning chemicals.
- Toughness Seaboard Lite is made from the same tough high
density polyethylene (HDPE) as our standard grade of Seaboard.
- Moisture resistance Seaboard Lite is resistant to moisture and
it will not rot or swell in moist environments.
- Light Seaboard Lite is 30% lighter than standard high density
polyethylene (HDPE)
3) Utility - Again,
a nice quality HDPE panel that is produced ideally for unexposed applications.
Excellent for upholstery, below deck applications, and anyplace else you want to replace
wood with composite. This panel is also "foamed" and has a
consistent surface on 2 sides. Another nice feature, the colors of the Utility panel
very closely, or in some cases, exactly match the Full Density and Lite panels.
Features and Benefits:
- Lightweight Seaboard Utility is a foam core product that is
30% lighter than standard high density polyethylene (HDPE).
- Economical Seaboard Utility is the economical choice for
non-exposed marine applications.
- Strength Seaboard Utility is extruded high density
polyethylene (HDPE) and is inherently strong.
- Moisture resistant Seaboard Utility will not rot, peel or
crack in moist environments.
Seaboard is Currently Available in the following colors:
-
Full Density - Polar
White, Seafoam, Artic White and Panama White.
-
Lite - Polar White and
Seafoam.
-
Utility - Light Grey.
-
In the Full Density and Lite, special colors are available with very reasonable minimum
quantities.
-
In the Utility Grade,
special colors are available in truckload quantities. Please discuss your needs
with us and we might be able to put together a stock program for you.
-
We stock different
items based on our existing customers needs. We have some colors in 1/2"
and 3/4" thickness, while others only in 1/4". Please give us a call to
find out our
exact
stock based on the specification, thickness, and color.
Seaboard is available in widths of 48" or 54". Standard
lengths are at 96", but the sky is the limit. If you require a panel at some
other length to improve your yield, let us know. We can give you a panel at any
length due to our extruding process.
