Cherry Luce (D-8946) has as an ‘NT’, or natural, finish with a veneer like appearance. Its strength lies in its versatile appearance, making it ideal for use in furniture in any room of the house and therefore having a broad market appeal. Cherry Luce is an ideal summer design, offering something completely new to the market with an elegant grain texture and light colour that will not date. To complete the look, Cherry Luce matches LG Nutrex’s Cherry Luce vinyl.

Mandalay (D-8949) offers a modern slant on traditional teak decors already on the market. Predominantly a kitchen design, Mandalay has a satin, or ‘BS’, finish and a bold, attractive, flowered design and has excellent print quality. For ease of matching, the new teak matches Cova Products’ PA vinyl.

Light Westminster Oak (D-8932) builds on the success of the existing Westminster Oak (D-9277) decor. It retains the most popular characteristics, which have been adapted to create a lighter, more contemporary tone.

The realistic woodgrain remains a feature of the updated decor, which can be accompanied by a range of accessories such as Cova’s Winchester PB vinyl. The Light Westminster Oak is also an excellent match with timber doors, such as PWS’s Bede and Uform’s Dante ranges.

Walnut Tiepolo (D-8953) draws it’s inspiration from increasingly popular bold linear finishes available in veneered and solid timber furniture. This design can be used either vertically or horizontally, and would be equally at home in domestic or commercial applications. Cova’s matching Walnut Tiepolo vinyl foil is set to hit the market imminently.

Light Lancelot Oak (D-8933) is the perfect design for the country kitchen look. The inviting light golden colour gives the Light Lancelot mass market potential, whilst the rustic features, such as large knots, scrape marks and deep cracks allow the kitchen designer’s creative potential to flourish. Light Lancelot is the perfect match to Cova’s Lancelot PB vinyl foil.

Mark Bircham, Kronospan’s product development manager, said of the new finishes: “The improvements made in printing technology over the last few years, have given us the ability to provide our customers with many exciting possibilities, of which these decors are some of the finest. Simply identifying an attractive new design however, is not enough. We believe through our close working relationships with complementary product manufacturers, our commitment to providing service to distributors via stock, along with achieving product specification through other means, such as the design software Articad, we are a step ahead in meeting the needs of our customers.”
