King StarBoard ST is a High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) sheet that provides a scratch-resistant surface, which is 25 percent stronger than the company’s original material. High scratch-resistance makes it appropriate in the construction of cabinets and furniture and its high-strength and stiffness makes it desirable for applications where less structural support is available. The building sheets are environmentally stabilized and developed to withstand harsh outdoor conditions, according to the company.
