Metallic Finishes: DecoMetal Laminates from Formica

Formica Corp. has added five new designs to its DecoMetal Laminates lines. The all-new Metallic series and new additions to the Rubbed series expand the possibilities for metal looks on vertical surfaces.

Metallic Series

The Metallic series is artistically aged with patinated cross-brushing, creating a distressed metallic effect.  

  • Metallic Gray: a sleek tone-on-tone silver 
  • Metallic Gilt: a vermeil plating effect with silver and gold highlights
  • Metallic Black: a darkened carbonized steel 

Rubbed Series

The Rubbed series is a real brass foil that is hand-rubbed and softly burnished in a linear fashion. The collection expands with two new colorways:

  • Wax-Rubbed Brass: a lightened brass that is smooth to the touch with a softened varnish
  • Oil-Rubbed Brass: hand-rubbed brass for an antiqued aesthetic with a darker, low-luster finish
