Wilsonart Unveils Revolutionary New HPL Commercial Collection

TEMPLE, Texas, April 14, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Wilsonart, a global leader in engineered surfaces, has redefined woodgrain design with the expansion of its Wilsonart Woodgrains™ collection as part of its latest high-pressure laminate (HPL) commercial launch. Featuring 16 no-repeat plain sliced bookmatched woodgrain designs, this groundbreaking HPL offering delivers beauty and performance that traditional wood veneer simply cannot match.

“Our Woodgrains collection represents a new era for commercial designers, offering the warmth and authenticity of real wood with advanced engineering that makes it tougher, more versatile and more sustainable,” said Audra Keiber, Director of Product Design at Wilsonart. “We scanned real wood veneer so that every inch of these designs is truly unique, emulating the beauty of real wood without the premium mark-up.”
