The principal is the same. The application is the same. The reason is the same. Unless that's straight up plastic, the materials are basically the same

It's about 1/8" thick clear plastic, with the woodgrain pattern printed on the backside.

The oddity to me, is the fact that they faked a raw plywood edge when you could just as easily fake a hardwood pattern that actually matches the top.
