Question 1

What is Charcoal by AGT?

Accepted Answer

Charcoal is a matte polymer panel from AGT's Soft Touch collection. It features a 1mm polymer veneer with a distinctive silk-effect texture on an 18mm MDF core. The surface is anti-fingerprint and scratch-resistant with repairable micro-scratches. Manufactured in Turkey.

Question 2

What size panels does AGT Charcoal come in?

Accepted Answer

AGT Charcoal is available as a full panel measuring 1220 × 2800mm (48" × 110¼") with an 18mm (¾") MDF core and 1mm polymer surface. Pallets contain 20 panels. A 0.7mm laminate sheet version (1220 × 2740mm / 48" × 108") is also available for wrapping and postforming applications.

Question 3

Is Charcoal scratch resistant?

Accepted Answer

Yes. AGT Soft Touch panels feature advanced scratch protection. Micro-scratches can be thermally repaired using a household iron — AGT's innovative self-healing process restores the surface through gentle heat application. The surface is also anti-fingerprint, stain-resistant, and resistant to common household chemicals.

Question 4

What panel sizes and formats does AGT offer?

Accepted Answer

AGT panels come in two formats: (1) Full panels at 1220 × 2800mm (48" × 110¼") with 18mm MDF core and 1mm polymer veneer, shipped 20 panels per pallet. (2) Laminate sheets at 0.7mm thickness, 1220 × 2740mm (48" × 108"), designed for wrapping, postforming, and surface lamination applications. Both formats are available across High Gloss, Supramat, and Soft Touch collections.

Question 5

What edge banding is available for AGT panels?

Accepted Answer

AGT offers color-matched PVC edgebanding in three thicknesses: 1mm (industry standard for cabinets and furniture), 2mm (heavy-duty for high-traffic and commercial use — allows edge profiling and chamfering), and 0.4mm pre-glued (heat-activated with iron or hot-air edgebander). Standard width is 22mm (⅞") for 18mm panels. Rolls are 100m (328 ft). Available from distributors including Richelieu, Hardwoods Specialty Products, and LEDGEBAND.

Question 6

Are AGT panels durable enough for kitchen cabinets?

Accepted Answer

Yes. AGT panels are specifically engineered for kitchen cabinetry. The 1mm polymer veneer is thermally bonded to the MDF core, providing superior chip resistance compared to painted or sprayed finishes. Supramat and Soft Touch surfaces are anti-fingerprint and stain-resistant — ideal for high-touch kitchen environments. High Gloss panels resist moisture and household chemicals. All AGT panels offer high screw retention and tensile strength for long-lasting cabinet construction.

Question 7

How do I clean and maintain AGT panels?

Accepted Answer

For daily cleaning, wipe with a soft, clean microfiber cloth. For High Gloss panels, use mild non-abrasive cleaners and wipe with a damp cloth to eliminate static dust attraction — occasional automotive polish maintains the mirror-like shine. For Supramat and Soft Touch panels, micro-scratches can be thermally repaired by gently applying a household iron to the affected area. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, and acetone-based products on all surface types.

Question 8

What certifications does AGT carry for green building and indoor air quality?

Accepted Answer

AGT panels carry CARB Phase 2 (California Air Resources Board) and TSCA Title VI compliance for the U.S. market. They also meet E0 emission standards (≤0.5 mg/L formaldehyde — stricter than European E1 requirements), hold Blue Angel certification (Germany's leading eco-label since 1978), and carry CE marking for European compliance. These certifications make AGT panels suitable for LEED, WELL, and other green building projects requiring verified low-emission interior materials.
