Watch-outs

Idea-specific discussion points — not automatic disqualification

  • Raw material price volatility

    Laminate roll and wood substrate prices fluctuate monthly; maintain 15-20% buffer in working capital.

  • Quality consistency

    Moisture content and pressure settings must be monitored continuously to avoid delamination; invest in basic testing kit.

  • Storage space constraints

    Roll storage requires 200-300 sq.ft. minimum; plan for vertical racking to optimise floor area.
