Formica Group Introduces a New Era of Sustainable Surfacing with FENIX​®​ NTX

Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Quebec, June 16, 2026 — Formica Corporation introduces FENIX^® NTX, a new generation of decorative materials that redefine what sustainable surfacing can look and feel like. Combining up to 90% bio-based material1 with the ultra-matte, soft-touch aesthetic and durability the brand is known for, the new product line marks a significant evolution for the FENIX^® portfolio.  

Developed through years of research and material innovation, FENIX^® NTX opens new possibilities for creating interiors that are both design-forward and more material conscious without compromising performance, workability or visual appeal. Designed for commercial and residential interior use across a wide range of applications including furniture, cabinetry, architectural millwork, doors, drawer fronts, wall panels and other interior surfaces, the collection reflects growing demand for lower-impact materials that still meet durability expectations of modern interiors. 

''Formica Canada is proud to introduce the new FENIX^® NTX range, delivering a high-performance material that supports evolving sustainability goals without compromising the performance, tactile quality, and visual sophistication that designers have come to expect from FENIX^® products,” says Christelle Locat-Rainville, Marketing Director, Formica Canada, and Commercial Leader, Sustainability. 

Designs For Every Aesthetic

As demand grows for more environmentally conscious material solutions, FENIX^® NTX incorporates renewable, bio-based raw materials that reduces reliance on fossil-derived inputs while maintaining structural integrity required for architectural surfacing applications. The result is a next-generation material that balances environmental considerations and performance, available in multiple designs to suit a variety of aesthetics. 

Woodgrains

Previously known for its ultra-matte solid colours, the FENIX^® portfolio introduces the first-ever natural wood-inspired looks. The new designs bring natural warmth and depth to the collection while maintaining the same soft-touch feel and low-reflectivity surface characteristic that defines the brand. 

• Talish: Inspired by the walnut forests of the Talish Mountains in southern Azerbaijan, reflecting endurance and natural origin. 
• Siam: Referencing noble Thai teak and the historical richness of Siam, evoking timeless elegance and depth. 
• Sila: Rooted in the oak forests and Mediterranean light of southern Italy’s Sila plateau, expressing harmony and substance. 
• Lys: Inspired by the chestnut valleys of Italy’s Aosta Valley, capturing warmth and refined luminosity.

Solid Colours

The FENIX^® NTX line also includes five of the brand’s most recognized solid colours, giving designers access to the familiar tones they know from the existing FENIX^® range, now within the new bio-based material platform.

• Nero Ingo
• Verde Comodoro
• Grigio Efeso
• Bianco Kos
• Bianco Malé

The new FENIX^® NTX collection further proves Formica Group’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of innovation and sustainability within the surfacing material industry by advancing material technology in ways that expand design possibilities available to architects, designers and fabricators.
