Laminate Textures

The texture of a laminate surface is created during the pressing process with a stainless steel plate. Wilsonart® Laminates are standard with textures that complement the visual of the design. Alternate textures are available and vary per design. 

			#01 High Gloss - Premium A mirror sheen finish, which gives a smooth, brilliant appearance. Recommended for horizontal applications such as countertops and light-to-medium commercial applications. Excellent for vertical application.  Glossometer reading: MD and CD 110 ± 10

			#07 Textured Gloss - Premium A textured finish which reproduces the high sheen of waxed wood furniture. Recommended for horizontal and vertical application.  Glossometer reading: MD and CD 42 ± 4

			#12 SoftGrain - Premium A dense, woodgrain structure that is low gloss and soft to the touch. Subtle highlights of reflectivity randomly occur within the embossed grains, creating a sophisticated raw wood look. Recommended for horizontal and vertical application.  Glossometer reading: MD and CD 8 ± 2

			#16 Casual Rustic - Premium Virtual design library A woodgrain texture with a blend of grain variations ranging from linear to subtle movement with random, irregular features. The overall low gloss surface is accented with higher sheen woodgrain ticking and random highlights. Recommended for horizontal and vertical application.  Glossometer reading: MD and CD 6 ± 1

			#18 Linearity - Premium A directional texture running the length of the sheet, having a narrow, random, matte-gloss linear quality. It is complementary to linear woodgrains, and linear patterns, and provides dimension and visual movement to solid colors.  Glossometer reading: MD and CD 18 ± 4

			#22 Antique - Premium Virtual design library A mixture of varying low gloss features combined with organic movement, indicative of the surface of an aged stone or an antique metal. Recommended for horizontal and vertical application.  Glossometer reading: MD and CD 9 ± 3

#78 FineGrain - Premium Virtual design library This premium finish features the polish and luxe of a real wood veneer, with a subtle, narrow grain structure that runs the length of the sheet. Recommended for horizontal and vertical application.  Glossometer reading: MD and CD 38 ± 3
