Product Lines:
Standard Laminate - The Original High Pressure Laminate.
Artisan™ - Artisan has an earthy beauty that’s reminiscent of the traditional hand-rubbed oil finish used by craftspeople to
produce a soft sheen on fine wood surfaces.
MicroDot™ - The texture of MicroDot™ adds visual and tactile interest to colors. Comprised of concave circles arranged in a
tight grid, this crisp finish makes a modern statement in vivid colors, pastels or neutrals
Naturelle™ Collection - Clean and simple, our Naturelle™ finish has a dry-wax appearance and an embossed “ticking” texture
that imparts a realistic grain effect. Naturelle™ is ideal for any surface where you desire the character of wood, but need the easy-care attributes of laminate. Recommended for light-duty horizontal and vertical interior applications. This finish is not recommended for heavy-duty horizontal applications such as countertops.
Sculpted™ - Hyper-graphic meandering lines add instant sophistication to existing, yet timeless solid colors and patterns. Ideal
for vertical applications, the Sculpted™ Collection updates traditional classics as well as new MDF composite looks. The Sculpted™ finish marries the technology of computer controlled carving or routing and the beauty of traditional natural materials like fiberboard. Grain runs across the width of the sheet, not the length.
