Laminate for interior Education projects

Laminate for Education Environments

Combining form and function, our laminate collections offer stylish and durable surfaces for a whole host of applications, suitable for education buildings and student accommodation.

Benefits of laminate

Perfect solution for education furniture, doors, walls, washrooms and lockers in nurseries, schools, colleges and universities.
The versatility of laminate allows a colour or pattern to be co-ordinated across multiple surfaces. Within education buildings, this could be to incorporate a school brand colour or to zone departments or classrooms.
Formica^® laminates are available in an array of different colours, woods and patterns to suit any scheme. Thin laminates can be bonded to a substrate, to create wall panelling, desks or postformed to create curved or rounded furniture elements.
The hygienic, low maintenance and long-lasting properties of Formica laminates, make them a favoured choice in education environments.

Pupils, teachers and staff spend a third of their time in school, and so it's important to ensure these environments are an enjoyable space to work, learn and play.
