SCHAUMBURG, Ill. – Ultrapan Modern Finishes will showcase three new green matte laminate panels that tap into the biophilic design movement at the Closets Expo, co-located with Wood Pro Expo Illinois. The twin-bill event is scheduled to take place April 18-19 at the Schaumburg Convention Center.

Biophilic design, one of the hottest trends in the A&D community, is all about connecting interior living spaces more closely to nature. Ultrapan says that no color evokes biophilic design better than green. Numerous studies conclude that green provides many benefits to human physical and mental health. For examples, green environments have been shown to reduce stress, improve mood, and boost creativity.

Ultrapan’s adds that its three new eco-friendly green matte designs satisfy customer requests for use in closets, cabinets, healthcare furniture, and other wood products.

Each of the new green shades embodies a distinct sensibility.

Timberland – Cleanliness and freshness
Olive – Tranquility, earthliness, and elegance
Mint -- Peace (matches Uniboard K79 TFL and HPL)

In addition to their calming and inspirational characteristics, Ultrapan says all three of these designs satisfy environmental considerations. The decorative surfaces are made from PET, the same recyclable plastic most commonly used by the soft drink industry. The substrates, meantime, are made using residual wood chips and shavings mostly from sawmills.
