Abstract
The subject matter of the present invention is a process for producing decorable moulded parts made of plastic materials, whereby an extrudable thermoplastic material is injected or pressed behind a non-dried or non-cured flat decorative layer or paint layer. In a preferred embodiment, the decorative layer or paint layer is powder coated, whereby the support film, the paint layer and the thermoplastic material are coextruded together. This process allows decorable moulded parts having complex geometrical shapes to be manufactured.
