GERMANY - With the merger of the two market leaders, the companies are relying on the symbiosis of many years of decor and design expertise and an innovative, sustainable substrate in the form of recycled PET film.

"We are joining forces to offer the industry a unique, future-oriented, and sustainable product that offers innovative solutions for demanding customer needs," says the management of both companies.

Fine Décor GmbH produces and refines sustainable plain lacquer laminate surfaces on a PET basis for the kitchen and furniture industry. The decorative film manufacturer has developed its own technology with a production cycle, which enables the recycled material to be used to produce a plain color or a furniture surface with a decor print. Even rejects are fed back into the company's own manufacturing process and completely processed.

The sustainable surface is elastic, moisture-resistant, and due to its composition, offers an environmentally friendly alternative to conventional thermoforming films. In addition, it is extremely durable, scratch-resistant, impressive because of its special anti-fingerprint property, and also has a particularly pleasant feel.

With the 50 percent stake in Fine Decor, Schattdecor will expand its product portfolio in the area of ​​Finished Surfaces and in the future will also print and refine PET-based films for its customers. The first joint product will be marketed by both companies under the name Fineflex.

Fine Decor was founded in 2004 and is one of the leading companies in its industry in the area of lacquer laminates. With its technologies and innovative capacity, Fine Decor not only reacts quickly to the demands of the market but is always ahead of trends.

Both companies, Fine Decor and Schattdecor, pursue the same demands for sustainable, environmentally friendly production of their products and are continuously working on expanding their product portfolio and customer service.
