METHOD FOR PRODUCING DECORATIVE PANELS

The present disclosure relates to a method for producing a decorative panel. The method comprises the following method steps in order to generate an especially realistic perceptive impression of a structuring, even with a lacquer-containing top layer: a) providing a carrier, b) applying a decoration onto at least a partial region of the carrier, c) applying a lacquer-containing top layer onto the decoration, wherein the method is characterized in that d) the lacquer-containing top layer is partially hardened, wherein d1) a partial hardening of the top layer is realized while forming a hardening gradient and wherein the hardening gradient is established in the direction of the thickness of the top layer such that a surface region of the top layer is hardened comparably stronger than a deeper-lying region of the top layer, and wherein e) subsequent to the only partial hardening of the top layer the latter it is provided with a structuring, wherein f) method step e) is realized at least partially by a negative structuring, and g) the lacquer-containing top layer is final hardened after method step e). The invention further relates to a decorative panel.
