The Raw Series: Celebrating Recycled Kraft Decors
Featured within the Formica® Patterns Collection Raw Series, F9684 Natural Recycled Kraft and F9685 Black Recycled Kraft decors are admired for their organic beauty, aligning with today’s most sought-after design trends.
Attractive for their organic aesthetic and use of recycled materials within the decor papers, the signature look of the Recycled Kraft decors has been expertly infused into high-performance laminate, engineered for both horizontal and vertical surface applications.
Both Natural Recycled Kraft and Black Recycled Kraft laminates combine recycled pulp and natural additives including coffee bean chaff and recycled burlap in the decor paper used to produce them. These decors use small-batch production, incorporating recycled materials into each decor paper to create unique patterns of speckles and fibres, which differ sheet to sheet. Recycled Kraft decor papers are created by blending these organic materials with recycled paper and water. The pulp is then pressed and dried through a series of rollers and ovens.
The Recycled Kraft decors have a wholesome, natural colouration created by the addition of coffee chaff and organic materials.
“The Recycled Kraft series provides a calming base for any scheme. You can enhance them with a range of muted or bright colours. For a grounded appearance, opt for organic tones like muted greens and yellows. Alternatively, create a striking palette by pairing them with warm reds, oranges, and contrasting woods for a modern, standout look.” Nina Bailey, European Design Lead
