GERMANY - The new Formica Collection arrived this May at Interzum, Cologne with new colors, decors, and textures.

After extensive research and development in manufacture and design, Formica Group is providing architects, interior designers, manufacturers and fabricators with a portfolio that includes 113 new décors, bringing the total to over 600 decorative laminate solutions.

The Collection is based on customer feedback and on key interior trends for new blues, pastels and an eco-nature inspired palette. Among the new introductions, Formica Group has developed 9 new Plain Colors that include: White F0949, Just Rose, Just Blue, Nocturne, Denim, Artichoke, Leaf Green, Just Gold, and Patina.

One of the most exciting additions to the new Formica Collection is Plus Color. There are 30 colors offered in 8 exclusive surface finishes. Plus Color presents a balanced mix of neutral colors from cool white to black, from cream to brown, and an attractive selection from the bolder palette, including “classics” like New Burgundy or Spectrum Yellow. The Plus Color range includes eight Formica Group exclusive surface finishes: AR Plus®, Plex™, MicroDot™, Sculpted™, Linewood™, Rigato™, Satin NDF, and Matte-58.

Authenticity and the return to essential and simple materials is one of the latest trends in interior designs. Therefore, the Formica Collection puts the emphasis on fabric, natural and man-made materials by introducing metal and engineered stone patterns and True Scale marble decors. With this in mind Formica Group introduces 8 True Scale marble decors that replicate the characteristics of the natural stones: Calacatta Marble, Breccia Paradiso, Slate Sequoia, Travertine Silver, Antique Mascarello, Blue Storm and Jet Sequoia.

These are just a few of the 113 new introductions to the Formica Collection, all FSC Certified as standard and all with GREENGUARD Indoor Air Quality certification.
