The UK’s leading manufacturer of High Pressure Laminate (HPL), Formica Group, can now be found at design resource studio Material Lab. Samples of material will be on display from the full Formica Group product portfolio.  

Ideally situated in a central London location near Oxford Street, Material Lab is accessible and convenient for many architects, specifiers and designers to look, feel and discover what exciting products Formica Group has to offer. Users of Material Lab will find it provides a unique opportunity to research materials for use in all types of building environments. 

"The ethos of Material Lab makes this partnership with Formica Group a great match," comments Rebecca Jones, Formica Group Marketing Manager UK, Ireland and Central Europe. "Formica Group and Material Lab believe that specifiers need a place to understand how their vision can come to life through the selection of materials. It's a relaxed environment with advice, expertise and a range of materials on hand. Being able to touch and feel materials is key to the design process."

 “We directly asked specifiers what sort of ‘experience’ they wanted in a design studio. Their answer: A place where we can find out about the latest trends and innovations," comments Ben Marshall, Studio Manager, Material Lab, "Showcasing Formica® products allows our clientele an enhanced resource when considering materials for their project. Material Lab has a long standing relationship with Formica Group and we are excited to develop our partnership." 

Last year Formica Group launched the Formica® Collection which was specially selected in response to European trends, with extensive colour families and co-ordination between ranges, textures and patterns. Formica Group continues to innovate and lead the market in decorative surfacing materials, bringing a practical, relevant resource to help create outstanding environments.
