ABSTRACT A method of producing a laminated panel having a backside form- ed of a normally rigid substrate, such as a polymer/filler com- position, in an essentially self-supporting thickness of typic- ally between 1 and 10 mm and a frontside formed of a differenti- ally segmented cover layer, e.g. having segments of differing materials and/or colors, bonded to said substrate by laminating- ly interconnecting, typically at elevated temperatures and press- ures, a layer of said substrate in a moldable, e.g. thermally plastified state and a differentially segmented sheet for form- ing said cover layer; the sheet has at least one seam line be- tween adjacent segments; in order to compensate the effects of an off-set between the position of the seam line of the segment- ed sheet and the desired position of the seam line between seg- ments on the laminated panel the novel laminating method in- cludes the step of forming a fold to protrude from the backside of the final laminate; the fold consists of a folded double layer of the segmented sheet as an inner fold portion and of an outer fold portion formed of the substrate; the folded double layer has a length corresponding to at least about 100 %, typic- ally between 100 and 300 %, of the self-supporting thickness of the substrate and embeds the seam line of the segmented sheet within the fold so that the visible junction between differ- ing segments on the frontside will be defined by the visible end of the folded double layer. Further disclosed is an apparatus for carrying out this method as well as a novel edge coating approach.
