igh gloss surfaces continue to dominate the kitchen, furniture and shopfitting markets and at the very forefront of high gloss production is the Austrian company, Senoplast. The success of Senosan AM1800TopX has resulted in a decision by Senoplast to invest in a further production line, which will help reduce delivery times and provide increased flexibility to customers. Senoplast now has three clean room furniture lines with hard coating facility and two standard furniture lines. Senosan sheets and films differ from other materials on the market, having unique surface features. But with so many high gloss surfaces on the market, why has Senosan become one of the most revered? Acrylic gives an extremely flat high gloss surface without orange peel effect and is comparable with glass in the flawlessness of its finish – but it comes without the disadvantages of glass. Senosan GmbH has taken its long established furniture films and added an inline surface coating called TopX in a cleanroom production facility in order to produce an outstanding product - and that’s given Senosan AM1800TopX acrylic surfaces some quite unique properties: the scratch resistance is infinitely superior to other high gloss surfaces; the chemical and stain resistance is so improved it can even be used in laboratory applications; and the UV resistance has been greatly improved for colour stability, which is becoming more important with specifiers for modern day applications
Kitchen doors made from Senosan AM1700XU and Senosan AM1800TopX. Now available in 19 stock colours
The super matt surface product range, introduced in 2014 with the installation of a second lacquer line, also comes with enhanced surface properties. The finish shows an improved scratch resistance and a silky touch with fingerprint-proof surface. This offers designers a choice of mixing gloss levels and colours. Senosan AM1800TopMatt is available in seven stock colours. Imitating premium glass in appearance, Senosan has also added five new colours of high gloss Acryl Glass in 2.0mm thickness to its stock programme. These new products will complement the company’s established range of 19 colours, which are available from stock in Senosan AM1700XU and Senosan AM1800TopX.
