FENIX
Description

FENIX is an innovative material created for interior design applications by Arpa Industriale in Italy. With low light reflectivity, its surface is extremely opaque, anti-fingerprint and is soft to the touch.

The external surface of FENIX involves the use of multi-layer coating and nanotechnology. It is characterised by next-generation acrylic resins, hardened and fixed with an Electron Beam Curing process, therefore creating a surface made up of microscopic peaks and troughs not visible to the naked eye.

FENIX is suitable for various interior design applications: kitchens, bathrooms, furniture (tables, bookshelves, partitions, chairs), hospitality, retail, healthcare, offices, education, transportation and more.

  • FENIX NTM® (Nanotech Matt) is available in 13 colours.
  • FENIX NTA® (Nanotech Alloy) is available in 3 alloy/metallic colours. These colours have the same properties as FENIX NTM, including thermal healing of superficial micro-scratches, except as a matt metal surface.
  • FENIX NTM® BLOOM (Lignin Technology) FENIX NTM is enriched with Bloom Lignin Core Technology, making it 50% more sustainable. Available in 4 bold and vibrant colours.
