CORE N TECHNOLOGY
SANDER COMPACT CORE N and SANDER COMPACT CORE X panels are solutions within the compact laminate category, designed for use in wet areas and commercial spaces. The visual, surface, and performance characteristics of these panels are equivalent to widely used compact laminate panels available in the market.
Depending on the project’s usage scenario, CORE N is preferred for standard applications, while CORE X is selected for specialized areas requiring intensive and heavy use. Both panels are designed to operate in full integration with Sander system components. To ensure system integrity and guarantee long-term performance, accessories compatible with the panel system are included.
Wet areas in architectural projects cannot be evaluated solely based on aesthetic expectations. WC cubicles, changing rooms, and shower cabins are exposed daily to heavy user circulation, continuous door opening–closing cycles, cleaning chemicals, variable humidity levels, and in certain zones, direct water contact.
Therefore, panel systems used in these areas must be assessed not only for their initial appearance but also for their long-term behavior, dimensional stability, and maintenance management. SANDER’s approach is based on differentiating wet areas according to usage conditions rather than treating them as a single uniform category.
Under standard usage conditions, CORE N maintains long-term dimensional stability, prevents distortion in door and panel alignments, and is fully compatible with daily cleaning and hygiene practices. Particularly in areas such as WC cubicles—where user traffic is intense, door cycles are frequent, and cleaning routines are rigorous—CORE N provides consistent and predictable performance, establishing a reliable benchmark for projects.
Within SANDER’s philosophy, every product has its appropriate application zone. CORE N is not positioned for shower cabins where continuous direct water exposure exists. This is not a weakness; on the contrary, it is a consciously defined technical boundary.
Shower cabins represent the most demanding environments within wet areas. Constant water exposure, high humidity, and mechanical stress push these spaces beyond standard conditions. At this point, SANDER COMPACT CORE X functions as the complementary component of the system. CORE X provides additional performance and safety reserves in applications where durability expectations increase due to continuous water exposure and heightened mechanical stress.
CORE X is not an alternative to CORE N. It is a complementary solution activated only when standard limits are exceeded. This approach prevents unnecessary cost increases, ensures higher performance is applied only where required, and balances the project budget based on technical reasoning.
SANDER does not treat compact panel solutions merely as a “panel product.” Panels are evaluated as part of a complete system including hinges, locks, feet, connection profiles, and installation details.
Thanks to this system-oriented approach, mechanical loads on the panel are evenly distributed, potential alignment issues at door-panel junctions are minimized over time, and stable, predictable long-term performance is achieved. This perspective reduces technical risks during and after installation while keeping operational and maintenance costs under control.
Every architectural project requires a standard panel solution that simplifies design and implementation, minimizes risks, and avoids unexpected outcomes. SANDER COMPACT CORE N directly fulfills this requirement. Based on SANDER’s extensive field experience, CORE N is positioned as the primary panel solution confidently used in the majority of projects.
Panels with a high-density fiber structure (>1050 kg/m³) are regarded as a reference for dimensional stability and mechanical strength in humid environments. SANDER’s panel philosophy considers the panel not merely as a surface, but as a functional structural element.
Panel performance is not meaningful unless evaluated together with hinges, locks, feet, and connection profiles. In SANDER systems, all components are designed as an integrated whole, fully compatible with the panel, balancing load distribution and supporting long-term stability.
In SANDER’s panel approach, the decision framework is clear: CORE N is the standard and reliable primary solution for the majority of architectural projects, while CORE X is a complementary option activated in shower cabins and special conditions where this standard is not sufficient.
