Sunmica

Sunmica is a popular brand of laminates in India. It is a decorative laminate sheet that is generally used as an overlay over wooden furniture.

The main difference between sunmica/laminates and veneer is the material. wood veneers are thin sheets or slices of wood, while sunmica or other laminates are a blend of paper and plastic.

Sunmica was an early entrant in the Indian laminates market, and its dominance for several years in the market, has been such that today for most Indians the words Sunmica and Laminates have become synonymous with each other.

Sunmica is one of the earliest and most popular brands of laminates in India, we all tend to refer to laminates as Sunmica. It’s quite similar to how photocopy is called Xerox, even though Xerox is just the most popular brand of photocopy machines!
