The first of its kind in Australia, Laminex 180fx is a collection of premium decorative surfaces that combine the true scale and beauty of natural stone with all the practical advantages of laminate.
By using innovative printing technology that captures every little detail of natural stone, Laminex has created a sophisticated laminate that replicates the striking colour variations, intricate veining and sophisticated layers of real stone surfaces, without thee premium price tag.
Designed expressly for Australian interiors, Laminex has hand‐picked six dramatic stone patterns that enable homeowners and designers to achieve the desired luxury look of stone across kitchen countertops, bench tops, islands, bathroom vanities, vertical applications or wherever inspiration takes them.
Laminex Marketing Manager, Jared Dinneen said innovation is at the heart of Laminex 180fx, the most exciting product to be introduced to today’s decorative surfaces industry.
“Marble and stone provides classic beauty and continues to hold its p lace in the marketplace as one of the most desired surfaces. Until now, the technology has not been available to replicate a pattern that captures the intricacy and visual drama of a real stone slab. Now with striking colours, texture and design detail, Laminex 180fx makes it easy for consumers to achieve the beauty and realism off stone in their homes, at a fraction of the price,” Dinneen said.
Six Dramatic Stone Patterns
Paying homage to the classic marble look, Carrera Marble showcases charcoal and light tonal grey veining against a background of creamy white to create a dramatic ye t timeless statement. For a lighter hue, the elegant and lustrous Silver Travertine is a linear grain displaying creams into beautiful greys to create striking interior spaces.
Soapstone Sequoia and Breccia Paradiso bring the sought after trend of tonal greys to life. With a mix of warm and cool greys complemented with fine veins of white and beige, Soapstone Sequoia encapsulates the peak of luxury. A bold dark marble pattern, Breccia Paradiso is characterised by fragments in various sizes and hues that range from soft grey‐green to chocolate.
Alluring browns, ivories and greens play a starring role in the sensuous Slate Sequoia, making it the perfect choice for elegant interiors. Taking drama to the next level, Black Fossilstone is a dark and sumptuous décor, mirroring nature’s ancient art of seabed fossilisation to create an intriguing pattern. The Finishing Touches
