Colour and surface match

• Decor, structure and core board all influence the final appearance of the end product.
• Due to the product-specific differences in production technologies, even identical decor/structure/core board combinations can result in slight optical and tactile deviations across different product groups and formats. Such deviations do not constitute a defect.
• The choice of surface structure in particular has a significant influence on the visual impression, the tactile perception as well as the technical characteristics of the product. Thus, the overall impression of a decor can change almost completely depending on the surface structure. Furthermore, mechanical influences on the product surface can lead to a higher contrast optical perception with dark decors.
• To ensure that you always achieve the best results with our products and to clarify any deviations in advance, we will be happy to advise you individually.
