High-Pressure Laminate (HPL) stands as a prominent engineered decorative surface material, comprising layers of paper, resin, laminate, widely utilized in furniture, countertops, flooring, and wall panels. This study investigates the environmental impact of HPL through the lens of its carbon footprint, a metric quantifying the carbon dioxide emissions associated with its entire life cycle. A notable finding from the European Panel Federation (EPF) suggests that the carbon footprint of HPL approximates 1.2 kg CO2 eq/m2, revealing the emission intensity per square meter of produced material.
