Formica Canada has introduced new patterns and woodgrain designs to its Formica Laminate portfolio. Designed to meet the evolving needs of modern interiors, this latest offering delivers a curated selection of organic textures and dynamic patterns ideal for a broad range of commercial and residential spaces.
“These new designs offer even more possibilities for architects, designers, and homeowners looking to create modern and welcoming spaces by focusing on durable, accessible materials made at our Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu plant in Quebec, Canada”, says Christelle Locat-Rainville, marketing director and green team leader at Formica Canada.
“We are proud to present a collection that combines warmth, texture, and realism, and that will integrate harmoniously into a wide range of environments.”
New collection highlights
This latest rollout includes eight new woodgrains and six new patterns in the Formica laminate line, adding both contemporary and timeless options. These high-pressure laminates are engineered for durability and style while providing broad applicability from casework and furniture to feature walls and cabinetry.
Woodgrains
- Natural white oak: A dense hardwood, white oak is a standard for architectural applications. A flat-cut white oak, also known as plain sliced or crown cut, is a popular choice for furniture-making.
- Fumed maple and silver maple: A hard and dense wood, maple is commonly used for interiors and furniture. A fine smooth surface with an elegant layout, the new Maple series is a flat-cut veneer enhanced with pearlescent highlights to reflect light for realism.
- Brun refined hickory and natural refined hickory: Hickory is a durable hardwood with delicate details and a narrow cathedral grain pattern, making it well proportioned for furniture.
- Coco tamarind: A distinctive wood grown in tropical and subtropical regions, tamarind features a wavy interlocked grain pattern – an exotic yet usable rare wood aesthetic with a linear red-brown stain.
- Ash riftwood and natural riftwood: Riftwood is a classic usable reconstituted wood visual perfect for furniture across a variety of commercial segments. These new tones provide on-trend lighter options to the riftwood family.
Patterns
- Limed siltstone and flint siltstone: Siltstone is a fine sediment composed of small gravel and mineral particles and makes concrete more interesting, similar to terrazzo. The natural details of these refined patterns makes them ideal substitutes for classic speckle or dot patterns.
- Palma fabric and sisal fabric: A naturalized linen look, these new Fabric colours feature a cross-weave layout of neutral backgrounds enhanced with whitened threads.
= Raw cloth and pampas cloth: A broken twill weave, these cloth designs have a subtle herringbone pattern combined with a linear quality that brings the familiarity of fabric with all the cleanability benefits of laminate.
