We believe in matching products to our clients’ budgets and specifications. Quality doesn’t have to be expensive, as proved by our MFC restroom stalls and panelling systems.
Manufactured from 19mm nominal thickness high performance MFC with ABS edging, this is the ideal material to specify for dry environments with a low risk of vandalism.

Unlike solid timber, real wood veneer is a thin layer of natural wood applied to the core board. The unique grain and textures bring warmth, depth and character to any restroom space. Our sleek Alpi real wood veneer restroom finishes have been carefully selected to bring warmth, vitality and luxury to your designs. Hardwearing, sustainable and great to look at, our real wood veneers are available across a range of our systems.
Specify our V3 ranges and complementing restroom systems in our premium finish to create the real wow factor. From fresh, light woods to striking, rich tones you can create a wide range of designs when designing commercial restrooms in our real wood veneer finishes.
Long-lasting: Veneer is less likely to warp, bend or bow when compared to using a solid wood alternative.
Cost-effective: Wood veneer allows the look and feel of solid wood for a more affordable price.
Eco-friendly: A long-lasting solution that is also recyclable. What’s more, we only source our real wood veneers from sustainable and ethical sources.
