Yes. This allows you to "laminate" the harder and the softer stuff to your needs.

Herr Alexander,

best would be to let me know what you need. I have the softer stuff in 6mm and 10mm, and the harder stuff in 3mm, 6mm and 10mm. And since I buy the stuff by the cubic meter I can give you a very good price. feel free to email me at the known email address.
