A panel of a planar design having a top side, a bottom side and multiple side edges, which panel has a laminated structure of layers that are adhered to each other. The layers include a core layer having a lower side and an upper side, and a top layer which is provided on the upper side of the core layer either directly or indirectly. At least two layers of the panel are directly or indirectly adhered to each other by an intermediate adhesive layer. The intermediate adhesive layer is composed of adjacent intermediate zones which include non-adhesive intermediate zones and adhesive intermediate zones, which intermediate adhesive layer establishes an adhesive strength between the two layers, such that a durable adhesion between the two layers is obtained, and a clean delamination of the two layers is allowed for when the two layers are subjected to a sufficient delamination force.

The invention relates to a panel system for composing a floor covering, wall covering, or alternative covering, in particular for outdoor applications. The invention also relates to a panel for use in said panel system according to the invention. The invention additionally relates to a first support structure for use in said panel system. The invention further relates to a covering, such as a floor covering or wall covering, composed of and/or by using the panel system according to the invention. The invention further relates to a method of composing a covering, in particular a floor covering, by using a panel system according to the invention.

The last decades has seen enormous advance in the market for flooring for floor covering. It is known to install floor panels on an underlying floor in various ways. The present invention relates to an improved panel, such as a floor panel, in particular a decorative floor panel. The invention also relates to a covering, in particular a floor covering, including multiple interconnected panels according to the invention.

A panel, in particular a floor, ceiling, or wall panel, of a planar design having a top side, a bottom side and multiple side edges, which panel has a laminated structure of layers that are adhered to each other. The layers extend parallel to the plane of the panel, and include a core layer having a lower side and an upper side, and a top layer which is provided on the upper side of the core layer either directly or indirectly. At least two layers of the panel, in particular the top layer and the core layer, are directly or indirectly adhered to each other by an intermediate adhesive layer. The intermediate adhesive layer is composed of adjacent intermediate zones which include non-adhesive intermediate zones and adhesive intermediate zones, which intermediate adhesive layer establishes an adhesive strength between the two layers, such that a durable adhesion between the two layers is obtained, and a clean delamination of the two layers is allowed for when the two layers are subjected to a sufficient delamination force.

The invention relates to a panel for composing a floor covering or wall covering. The invention also relates to a panel system including at least one panel according to the invention. The invention further relates to a method of composing a covering, in particular a floor covering, by using a panel system according to the invention.

A panel and a method of manufacturing a panel, such as a floor panel, a wall panel or a ceiling panel, in particular a decorative floor panel including at least a first edge having a first coupling part configured to be coupled to a second coupling part of another panel. At least one expandable material located adjacent at least a part of an upper portion of the first edge. A covering, in particular a floor covering, comprising multiple interconnected panels is also provided.

A decorative panel, in particular a decorative floor panel, ceiling panel or wall panel. A decorative covering composed of a plurality of, preferably interconnected, decorative panels according to the invention, wherein said covering preferably includes entire panels and sawn panel parts and/or cut panel parts.

The present invention relates to a panel suitable as a floor, ceiling or wall panel, which panel is of a planar design having an upper side, a bottom side and side edges. Furthermore, the invention relates to a covering comprising a plurality of interconnected panels according to the invention. The invention also relates to a method of uncoupling two (or more) interconnected panels.
