2020 New Arborite High Pressure Laminate Brochure

Every space is a new beginning.

Lasting inspiration from MontrĂŠal

INTRODUCTION

Why Arborite

Designed in Montréal

Established in Canada in 1948, Arborite is driven to create laminate designs that work well with other material palettes.

We understand our product is often the last specified, and the last replaced.

Our designs must be versatile and enduring- lasting in style as well as durability. We do the extra work to make sure Arborite is well-positioned to deliver solutions now and in the long-term.

For each launch we spend hundreds of hours keeping a pulse on complementary materials, researching market trends and talking to the architecture and design community. We bring these insights home to Montréal. Then we sort, letting the complementary materials and the people who specify them show us what they need from our laminate. Those guidelines combine with our Montréal culture, and voilà! Arborite’s distinct brand: Europeaninspired design solutions translated for North American applications.

Paper Empowered

Environment

“P-lam” or plastic laminate is actually a printed paper product. Working in close collaboration with the world’s best printers, we not only achieve fidelity of natural materials, but surpass their limits and solve problems. Through technology we are able to offer the look of endangered wood species, create designs that combine both organic and abstract characteristics and underlay corrective tones to ensure colors don’t flip in application.

Our name, Arborite, means two things—“made from trees,” and “keeper of trees.” Our product was invented to conserve natural resources. To this day, we continually pursue that mission. Our FSC-Certified products are testimony of our commitment to environmentally appropriate, socially beneficial and economically viable forest management.

All Arborite laminates are GREENGUARD Indoor Air Quality Certified.

Balancing the scales with neutrals The emerging color story of "neutral" responds to the desire for simplicity within busy modern living. Technology makes us efficient and able to take on more tasks. But being always connected and always "on" can feel hectic. So, we seek to declutter and reduce the noise within our spaces. Natural, organic hues and soft-to-mid tones feel soothing and authentic. Greys, from light to charcoal, warm spice colors such as saffron, turmeric and cinnamon, and rich creams all contribute to a calm, clean look.

Neutral color trends set the stage for strong statement surfaces in color and texture. Flooring, with its definitive area, is increasingly delivering large-scale designs in both hard surfaces and carpet.

With beautiful, bold aesthetics underfoot, we’ve developed our new collection to be timeless and minimalist. In other areas, intricate patterns or interesting textures are used with tone-on-tone neutrals to add interest without adding noise. The quiet woodgrains and small-scale abstract patterns of our laminates work with other materials to create harmonious spaces.

Putting green and blue to work for you Underlying trends of biophilia and health/wellness bring blues and greens into commercial, healthcare and hospitality environments.

As the scale of botanical patterns increases in carpet and upholstery, the tone of blues and greens becomes more temperate and subdued. Sage greens and mid-tone blues with a soft grey or silver undertone feel warm and inviting. While a bottle green with bluish or metallic undertones feels cool and crisp.

As a durable surface, laminate tends to pull color when light reflects off other materials. The result can be the dreaded unintentional color-flip, where a color looks completely different in context of the application. To remedy this, we’ve built very specific warm and cool undertones into our designs. Multiple colorations within patterns intentionally line up to bring out the intended hues of the other materials in the palette so that colors stay true.

The bold and the beautiful The color story of red, orange and pink is moving toward rich and saturated tones. Dark shades such as merlot, sediment, clay, baked earth, terra cotta, and even aubergine, are balanced with vibrant jewel tones. Purple, pink, fuchsia, apricot and peach are appealing and warm. Bold patterns accompany the bold colors, though often as tone-on-tone to mute the look so it does not become distracting.

Mixing and layering different scale and structure of bold reds, oranges and pinks is a great way to add contrast and interest into a design with paint, carpet, upholstery and other soft surfaces. Our laminate’s job is to create an environment that will support today’s bold aesthetic, while being versatile enough to adapt to tomorrow’s.

Our designs are demure, elegant, timeless, and able to accept big patterns from other materials without making the space look heavy or busy.

Artisan Walnut

Responding to European trends, Arborite’s new collection combines color, market and material trends with insights from the architecture and design community to deliver solutions.

With a focus on woodgrains, the designs in our new collection are at home in neutral color schemes but can also work seamlessly with pops of color.

Our laminates are developed to integrate into a larger palette and tie other elements together— quietly grounding bolder material specifications without competing.

Inspired by the classic textile in which the warp thread is dyed while the weft thread is left white, Denim features a diagonal ribbing that is refined and pleasing.

Like intersecting streets in a metropolitan landscape, City balances movement with order for a series of designs that are sophisticated and inclusive.

Minimalist and unpretentious, Nordic Wood’s easily pleasing structure is clean and comforting. The design’s new low sheen CW (Casual Wood) finish adds visual interest with soft ticking.

Arcadian Oak delivers a substantial wood aesthetic, yet the subtle grain and gentle coloration prevent the design from being heavy or demanding.

Elevated by the application of the new registered embossed AW finish, our Artisan Walnuts carry texture that exactly matches the design for unprecedented fidelity.

Scandinavian Ash

Named for a distinctive weave of linen that produces a mottled appearance, Chambray’s organic, fibrous look offers neutral tones that blend beautifully with woodgrains.

Intriguing and versatile, Illusion incorporates both organic woodgrain elements and abstract geometric elements into a finely-built design.

These carefully-crafted maple designs were built with warm and cool undertones to prevent color-flipping and ensure the look stays true in any application.

The structure of Scandinavian Ash is soothing, offering design longevity that harmonizes with bolder patterns and colors.
