Absen vs Leyard
12 matched panels · 2.6 to 5.2 mm · specifications from both makers' datasheets
The two lineups side by side, then what the matched panels say about weight, power and what each maker publishes. Every figure is the maker's own; the planner adds nothing it cannot point to on a sheet.

Weight and draw are per square metre of cabinet, so different cabinet sizes compare fairly. Ranges run across every panel the maker has in the database, not only the matched ones.
What the sheets say
- Absen and Leyard overlap on 12 matched pairs between 2.6 and 5.2 mm; outside that band one of them has no comparable panel.
- Absen is the lighter cabinet in 0 of 12 matched pairs, Leyard in 12. Across their lineups that is 19 to 38 kg/m² against 16 to 20 kg/m².
- Absen draws less at full white in 9 of 12 matched pairs, Leyard in 3. Lineups: 400 to 800 W/m² against 600 to 1,200 W/m², which sets the circuit count.
- Cabinet formats: Absen builds in 250×500, 600×337.5, 500×500, 500×1000, 1000×500, 1000×1000 mm; Leyard in 500×500 mm. A shop that already owns one format keeps its bumpers and cases.
- A hanging limit is published for 28 of its 43 panels by Absen and for none of its 8 panels by Leyard; where it is not, the planner uses a conservative placeholder and says so.
- Both publish a typical draw for every panel here, so the typical kilowatt figure rests on the sheets, not on an estimate.
Matched panels, side by side
Each pair is two panels of comparable pitch, one from each maker, with the same wall built from both.
