Merino laminate price in India: quick answer (November 2026)
Merino Industries Limited sells decorative laminates under the Merinolam name. In November 2026 a 1 mm Merino sheet listed at ₹1,600 from a Chennai dealer (GST not stated) and ₹2,095-3,300 including GST on the online retailer ibo.com, about ₹50-103 per sq ft on an 8x4 sheet. A 0.8 mm liner listed at ₹699 including GST. Merino publishes no laminate price list on the pages checked, so a dealer quote decides the final rate.

Merino laminate price list: November 2026 listings
Merino laminate prices vary by thickness and by the design code on the sheet, and the same 1 mm sheet can list for ₹1,600 or ₹3,300 depending on the seller and the collection.
The table shows every Merino laminate price found on 3 November 2026. The ibo.com page listed 16 Merino products, all marked as including GST. Most titles do not state the sheet size, so the per sq ft column is a PlyPrice estimate (method: sheet price divided by 32 sq ft, assuming an 8x4 ft sheet).
| Listing (seen 3 November 2026) | Source type | Price per sheet | GST | Per sq ft (8x4) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0.8 mm liner, four designs (for example 52352 SF, 56113 SF Grey) | ibo.com, online retailer | ₹699 | Included | ₹22 |
| 0.8 mm Merino laminate, Pune | IndiaMART seller listing | ₹1,500 | Not stated | ₹47 |
| 1 mm Merino laminate sheet, 8x4, Chennai | IndiaMART seller listing | ₹1,600 | Not stated | ₹50 |
| 1 mm Merinolam 44752 White Cambric (code LNN) | ibo.com | ₹2,095 | Included | ₹65 |
| 1 mm designs with code MR+ (nine listings, for example 40475 Blanco Ibiza, 22062 Tropical Blue) | ibo.com | ₹2,690-2,760 | Included | ₹84-86 |
| 1 mm Merinolam 14667 Dinder Samari Oak (PRH) and Whitney 40006 Tremble Marble (WTN) | ibo.com | ₹3,300 | Included | ₹103 |
| 1 mm brown matt antibacterial, 4x8 ft | L&T-SuFin marketplace | Not published (quote on request) | Not stated | Not available |
Three limits apply. The ibo.com page notes that some listings have extra variants, so a title price may not cover every option. The two dealer listings do not say whether GST, cutting or delivery is included. And one Chennai listing and one Pune listing are too few to call a city rate, so read them as examples.
The gap between the Chennai dealer (₹1,600) and ibo.com (₹2,095-3,300) cannot be split into tax, collection and sales channel from the listings alone. Ask each seller for a delivered, GST-inclusive quote on the same design code before you compare.
Merino 1mm laminate price and other thicknesses
A 1 mm Merino decorative sheet is the most common listing and ranges from about ₹50 to ₹103 per sq ft; the 0.8 mm and liner sheets cost less.
1 mm decorative sheets
At 1 mm the ibo.com listings fall into three steps by design code: ₹2,095 for code LNN, ₹2,690-2,760 for the nine MR+ designs, and ₹3,300 for the PRH and WTN designs. That is a spread of ₹1,205 per sheet inside one brand and one thickness. The page does not explain the letter codes, so ask the dealer to write the full code (design number plus letters) on the quote and on the invoice.
Laminate makers' own guidance (CenturyLaminates and Greenlam, not Merino) treats 1 mm as the everyday choice for kitchen shutters and busy surfaces, while thin 0.6 mm sheets suit low-traffic interiors such as closet shelves. Merino's own thickness guidance could not be checked, so use that general rule with the dealer.
0.8 mm sheets and liners
Liners are the thin, plain sheets used inside wardrobes and drawers. Merino 0.8 mm liners listed at ₹699 including GST on ibo.com, and one Pune seller listed a 0.8 mm Merino laminate at ₹1,500. For other brands, 0.8 mm liners listed at ₹300-700 in the same month, so the Merino liner sits at the upper end of that band; see the sunmica price guide.
Merino sunmica price
Sunmica is a brand name that Indian buyers and carpenters use for any decorative laminate. A search for Merino sunmica price therefore returns the same product and the same rates as the Merinolam table above.
Merinolam ranges explained
Merino's laminate ranges are known mainly through trade press and listings, and each one targets a different finish or buyer.
| Range | What it is, as reported | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Luvih | Haute Matte, anti-fingerprint surfaces with near-zero reflectivity. The coverage names five lines: ZEROPRINT, ONETONE, FLEX, BLOC and EDGE (matte edge bands) | Retail4Growth, 15 May 2025 |
| Laminature | Embossed texture range of 12 designs in 3 premium finishes, blending woodgrain and stone looks | Indian Retailer, 17 February 2023 |
| Metalam | A newer Merino laminate presented as suited to bold retail spaces (headline-level information only) | Retail4Growth |
| Feather Touch | Premium HPL series shown at Matecia 2023 | Wood & Panel Europe, 2 October 2023 |
| CALPLUS 2023 | Line described as competitively priced for Tier II and III cities | Wood & Panel Europe, 2 October 2023 |
| Whitney | Collection name in ibo.com titles (for example 40006 Tremble Marble), listed at ₹3,300 | ibo.com listing |
| Merinolam FR+ PF, Uni+, Luvih (UK catalogue) | Postformable fire retardant grade, through-colour, metallic and magnetic options, in 0.7-1 mm; sheets of 3050x1300, 4300x1550 and 2440x1220 mm | James Latham, UK distributor |
What Luvih means for a kitchen or wardrobe
Luvih is the range to ask about if fingerprints on dark matte shutters are your concern. Retail4Growth reports Merino's claims of over 450 cycles in the Taber abrasion test, scratch resistance above 4 N and a 99.99 per cent bacteria reduction within 24 hours. These are the brand's claims as reported; ask the dealer for the test report for the specific design.
Certifications reported
Indian Retailer says Laminature is Greenguard and Greenguard Gold certified and meets EN 438 impact resistance, and Wood & Panel Europe says Merino's surfaces hold Greenguard and Greenguard Gold. Neither article says which products each certificate covers, so ask for the certificate for your design. The same trade coverage describes Merino as present in 80-plus countries.
Merino's plywood is a separate product with its own grades and rates; this page stays on laminates, and the Merino plywood price guide covers the boards.
How Merino compares with other branded laminates
On listed prices, Merino sits at the upper end of the branded 1 mm band, mostly because of the online retailer's rates; on published detail, it shares the gaps most laminate brands leave online.
| Point | Merino (Merinolam) | Other branded sheets in November 2026 listings |
|---|---|---|
| 1 mm 8x4 sheet | ₹1,600 (dealer); ₹2,095-3,300 (ibo.com, GST included) | Most suede and gloss designs ₹1,100-1,850; Greenlam ₹1,200-1,800, CenturyLaminates ₹1,100-1,900, Virgo ₹700-1,500 (GST mostly not stated) |
| 0.8 mm liner | ₹699 (ibo.com, GST included) | ₹300-700 |
| Anti-fingerprint range | Luvih (reported) | Greenlam AFX, Virgo Spotless, Stylam TouchMe on their own sites |
| Thickness range published online | Not confirmed for India; UK catalogue shows 0.7-1 mm | Greenlam and CenturyLaminates publish 0.6-1.5 mm decorative ranges; Virgo lists 0.72-1.5 mm |
| Warranty period | Not stated on merinoindia.com | Not stated on most laminate sites checked; ask the dealer for written terms |
| Price list | Not published | Not published by Greenlam, CenturyLaminates or Virgo on the pages checked |
Generic alternatives also exist. A 1 mm sheet listed at ₹390 in Ahmedabad was described as B grade, so the very low end of the market is a different grade, not a like-for-like saving. For a brand-by-brand view, read best laminate brands in India.
What a Merino laminate job may cost
For a kitchen or wardrobe with 60 sq ft of visible shutter face, three 1 mm Merino sheets cover the job and cost roughly ₹4,800-9,900.
PlyPrice estimate (method: 60 sq ft multiplied by 1.1 for cutting waste is 66 sq ft, divided by 32 sq ft per sheet is 2.06, rounded up to 3 sheets, then multiplied by the listed 1 mm sheet price). At ₹1,600 that is ₹4,800; at ₹2,095, ₹6,285; at ₹2,690, ₹8,070; at ₹3,300, ₹9,900. Add liner for the insides, the substrate board, adhesive and carpenter labour, none of which is included here. The listings differ in tax basis, so the low end is not a like-for-like quote.
Where to buy Merino laminates
Merino laminates reach Indian buyers through dealers and online retailers; the group site lists the product families but no price or dealer locator in the record checked.
- Dealers and distributors: the usual route for carpenters and interior designers. IndiaMART seller pages show Merino sheets in Chennai and Pune.
- Online retailers: ibo.com lists Merino with GST-inclusive prices, and a L&T-SuFin listing from an Ernakulam seller shows a brown matt antibacterial sheet with price on request.
- Merino's website: check merinoindia.com for current product pages and contact options before you order.
In humid coastal cities such as Chennai, Kochi and Mumbai, ask the dealer which substrate the sheet will be bonded to and how edges will be sealed, because laminate holds up only as well as the board beneath it. See the laminate uses guide for kitchen, wardrobe and wall applications.
How to buy and verify Merino laminate
Match the design code, thickness and licence details on the pack with your quote and invoice before the sheets are cut.
- Know the standard: IS 2046 is the Indian Standard for decorative laminated sheets. BIS has revised it into eight parts identical to ISO 4586, and a BIS circular dated 24 February 2026 lets the 1995 edition and the new parts run together until 24 March 2027.
- ISI mark and CM/L number: if the pack carries the ISI mark, note the licence number (CM/L- followed by 10 digits) and verify it in the BIS Care app (Verify Licence Details) or on Manak Online (Status of Licence). The record should name the manufacturer and IS 2046. Whether a given Merino design carries the mark is not confirmed in the sources checked.
- Invoice: design number, finish code, thickness (1 mm, 0.8 mm or liner), sheet size, quantity and GST, each in writing.
- Thickness: measure a sample with a screw gauge or vernier caliper, since 1 mm, 0.8 mm and liner sheets look alike at the edge.
- Batch: take all sheets for one room from the same batch and check the batch details on the pack for shade match.
- Delivered price: ask for transport, cutting and tax separately, then divide the sheet price by 32 (8x4) to compare per sq ft.
The steps match those in how to check the ISI mark and CM/L number. Counterfeit risk is lowest when you buy from an authorised dealer and keep the invoice.

Sources and method: Prices come from the ibo.com Merino listing page (GST included) and an IndiaMART Chennai seller page, seen on 3 November 2026; the Pune listing and other-brand bands are from IndiaMART listings checked the same day for the sunmica price guide. Per sq ft and project figures are PlyPrice estimates (method: sheet price divided by 32 sq ft, or as shown). Brand facts come from the Merino Group site (merinoindia.com, as recorded in PlyPrice's 3 November 2026 site check); Merino's laminate site, merinolaminates.com, could not be fetched on 3 November 2026, so range details rely on attributed third-party sources: Retail4Growth on Luvih, Indian Retailer on Laminature, Wood & Panel Europe and the James Latham Merinolam page (UK catalogue). Standards context is from the BIS circular of 24 February 2026 on IS 2046. Prices are indicative, checked on 3 November 2026, and vary by city, dealer, brand series, thickness and order size.
