Formica: Surfacing solutions across the world
Introducing Formica® Veneer

April 2007
Delivering the beauty and warmth of natural wood combined with the practicality of laminate, Formica® Veneer is the brand new premium wood surfacing collection from Formica.
Replacing the existing veneers range it features fresh and exciting new designs developed exclusively by Formica to address current interior trends.

A sustainable option, Formica Veneer incorporates reconstituted real wood veneers derived from fast growing species such as poplar, obeche, basswood and bamboo, which are all sourced from sustainably managed forests. The 30 new designs capture the natural appeal of real wood using a unique combination of fine wood structure, beautiful colour and tactile finish.

Out performing most natural wood products Formica Veneer is suitable for vertical and light duty horizontal applications across a wide range of environments, such as hotel, bar, restaurant, office, retail and domestic interiors. Perfectly engineered, it offers looks that cannot be achieved with natural wood veneers, while at the same time providing consistency of colour sheet to sheet, greater ease of fabrication and a higher level of usability than conventional wood veneers.

Within Formica Veneer, exotic species are offered alongside more traditional woods, while the wax finished Fineline and Striawood options, and metropolitan exotic straightgrains add something inspired for the modern interior.

Two distinct textures have been developed to give each species a complementary and natural look and feel. Providing a fashionable, soft, low-sheen surface, ‘Wax’ emulates the look of a waxed or dry wood finish. ‘Pur’ gloss offers a sophisticated, subtle polished lustre with a silky texture. In addition, lighter colour designs feature a bleached kraft backing which is more complimentary to the surface colour and offers many benefits during fabrication.

Available in a 2440x1220mm sheet size Formica Veneer is the next generation in product development, offering high-end premium designs without the performance, cost and sourcing issues associated with real wood veneers.
