Reception Areas
First impressions shaped by surfaces that welcome and inspire. Arrival spaces create the first impression of a hospitality experience. Reception desks, feature walls, and entry surfaces often set the tone for the design story that continues throughout the property. The Formica® Portfolio of Surfacing Solutions offers materials that bring visual depth and premium aesthetics to these spaces while providing the durability needed for constant guest interaction.
Reception counters are often the first tactile moment of a guest's experience. InDepth Surfacing™ brings dimensional texture and a premium, crafted feel to these surfaces while delivering the durability needed to withstand constant interaction in high-traffic hotel lobbies.
Corridors
Durable surfaces that keep hospitality spaces looking refined. Corridors and elevators guide guests through the property, connecting rooms, amenities, and shared spaces. These transitional environments benefit from materials that maintain a polished, consistent appearance even with frequent luggage traffic and daily use. With durable surfaces available in a wide range of finishes and textures, the Formica® Portfolio of Surfacing Solutions helps hospitality designers extend the visual identity of the property throughout every guest touchpoint.
Suite doors are a highly versatile and frequently used element throughout any hotel. Formica® Laminate offers a durable, long-lasting solution with an extensive range of sophisticated designs, making it easy to achieve a consistent, high-end look that performs reliably across every guest floor.
Suites
Surfaces that help transform rooms into memorable stays. Guest rooms are where hospitality becomes personal. Surfaces must contribute to an atmosphere that feels comfortable, refined, and thoughtfully designed while supporting the daily use that comes with overnight stays. The Formica® Portfolio of Surfacing Solutions offers materials that combine residential- inspired aesthetics with the durability needed for hospitality environments, helping create suites that feel both inviting and enduring.
The headboard anchors the guest room and sets the tone for rest and relaxation. Arpa® Laminate and Arpa® TUET bring depth, texture, and a crafted, tactile quality to this feature element, creating a refined focal point that enhances the overall guest experience.
Dining Areas
Materials that set the stage for memorable dining experiences. Dining spaces are often the social heart of hospitality environments. From hotel bars to restaurants and cafés, surfaces play a key role in shaping atmosphere, supporting service, and reinforcing the design concept. The Formica® Portfolio of Surfacing Solutions provides materials that bring visual impact and durability to hospitality dining environments, helping spaces remain beautiful and functional through every service.
Bar tops see constant interaction from guests and staff alike. Everform® Solid Surface delivers a seamless, nonporous, water-resistant surface that supports easy cleaning while maintaining a smooth, refined appearance through every service.
Conference Areas
Materials that transform flexible spaces into memorable event experiences. Event spaces in hospitality settings host everything from meetings to weddings and large gatherings, requiring surfaces that combine visual impact with durability. The Formica® Portfolio of Surfacing Solutions delivers versatile materials that support refined, high-use environments for every event.
Columns in event and conference spaces see constant contact from guests, furniture, and equipment. TRESPA® TopLab® Vertical provides a highly durable surface that resists impact while maintaining a clean, cohesive look throughout the entire space.
