Bring meticulous form to your kitchen – then relax and enjoy.
In association with Forté.
Crafted to resemble a piece of beautiful furniture, today’s kitchens rely on materials that derive from nature which are then manufactured into surfaces that are true to their origin — only better.
Pre-finished timber veneers are a formidable tool in the designer’s repertoire, a way to bend and shape the character of wood into cabinetry profiles curated to complement any interior.
Made from European oak, ash and American walnut, and then coloured to tones ranging from the palest honey through delicious browns to inky black, Alor veneer panels by Forté are more than a match for the highly patterned marbles that make a habit of stealing the limelight. Harmonising with the engineered timber flooring that Kiwis love to love, the panels, used on cabinetry and island fronts, help draw the open-plan living-zone palette together.
Good looks, of course, aren’t everything. Utilitarian zones need substance, too. The Alor collection has a high-quality UV-lacquer finish that allows the woodgrain to shine as a textural hero and protects doors and drawers from the bumps and knocks of everyday family life. Each panel is precisely cut and finished so, if it’s streamlined style you’re after, they’re a natural win.
The innovation doesn’t stop there. A revolutionary Duo Edgebanding system ensures the cabinetry stays pinpoint flawless and fabulous so once your new kitchen is installed, all you need to do is brush up on your cocktail-making skills then send out the invitations. Bring on the Aperol and appetisers.
