Reflective, decorative
High temperature resistance, high strength
Very high temperature resistance, high strength
High heat and cold resistance
NOTES
In many applications, Olympia backings add a second surface that affects how the underlying
surface relates to the environment. To optimise that relationship, Olympia backings offer a wide
choice of performance and handling characteristics.
