Romancing The Stone - The Latest Fashionable New Colours From Formica
Be inspired by the forces of nature with the latest releases from the Formica laminates range now available. Stone is a
major theme in the 13 new laminates that feature earthy colours and stormy, stony greys.
The stunning Formica high-pressure laminate range offers more than 200 colours, patterns and textures ideally suited to
today's lifestyle. Formica gives a fashionable edge to form and function in design and is suitable for both domestic and
commercial interiors.
Lianne Ning, The Laminex Group Category Manager - Decorative Solutions, says the 13 new colours are a representation of
overseas trends towards natural looking finishes and textures. "These new colours make you take a second look at Formica
as a fashionable option for your design," Ning says.
Seek out the slate-like Lava Stone, the liquid smooth Amaretto Stone or the icy cool of Arctic Stone. Travel the Milky
Way for a marble stone effect, or experience the lure of Celadon Stone - with miniature stone chips in shades of green.

Counterpoint features striking black and grey chips against a white background, while Concrete and Brushed Silver are
perfect for modern and industrial finishes. Orion shines like a star with fine twinkling detail. And sail the smooth
shores of Cocoa Sand, a pale white background with soft grey chips, or try Artisan Sage's palate of earthy brown with
line texture.
