• 20 new cutting edge decors including urban designs such as concretes and subtle plaster effects; authentic classic, oaks and grey-toned woods; and feature decors based on original abstract patterns and designs.
• 3 new premium textures inspired by ultra-matte trends, woodgrains and stones, bringing each decor to life with added tactility and remarkable interplays with light.
• 13 new feature splashbacks in vibrant on-trend and tonal decors such as Terrazzos and Herringbones, providing a range of memorable finishes and styling options.
• 50 matching splashbacks, ensuring every Axiom worktop can be matched and consumers have the opportunity to enjoy a seamless, fluid and monolithic look across their kitchens.
• The Collection is perfectly matched with decors available in either 22mm or 38mm thickness.
• Available as an elegant square edge or curved profile, depending on design.

Nina Bailey, Formica Group Design Manager, has describes the new Axiom Collection as a defining moment in kitchen design. She said: “The new Axiom Collection perfectly captures the key trends of kitchen design for both now and the future, with an emphasis on nature and the outside world clear to see.”

“Coupled with this are a selection of new intricate and abstract patterns which allow you to add individuality and unique style to the kitchen, while the feature splashbacks offer a new varied solid colour palette of truly stunning muted and delicate tones combined with moody rich hues.”

“Whether you’re looking for the sophistication and elegance of veined marbles and classic granites, or the modern aesthetics of urban concrete and feature woods, Axiom has the answer.”

“We all know that the kitchen is the hub of the modern home. It is a multifunctional space for working, playing, dining and relaxing. Thanks to Axiom, it has never been better served.”
