FENIX® is the next generation of smart surface material created by Arpa Industriale in Italy and brought to you by APT. FENIX® is designed for horizontal and vertical interior applications including kitchens, hospitality, healthcare, transportation, bathrooms and furniture. It has won numerous international prizes since its introduction to Europe in 2013.

The external surface of FENIX involves the use of multi-layer coating and nanotechnology, and is characterised by next generation acrylic resins, hardened and fixed with an Electron Beam Curing process. This process creates a surface made up of microscopic peaks and troughs not visible to the naked eye. With low light reflectivity, its surface is extremely opaque, anti-fingerprint and is soft to the touch.

Home Ideas is home to one of the largest FENIX® displays on record featuring a fully fabricated bench island, oversized interactive vertical panels and pull out sample draws of two ranges including:

• FENIX NTM (Nanotech Matt) in 12 colours.
• FENIX NTA (Nanotech Alloy) in 3 alloy/metallic colours. These colours have all of the same properties as FENIX NTM including thermal healing of superficial micro-scratches, except as a matt metal surface.

Specifiers are encouraged to contact contact APT via their website for more information or a guided viewing.
