Why Richlite®?


Richlite is a paper composite panel that Architects and designers appreciate for its versatility, durability and environmental attributes. The material has a natural appeal and matte finish that complement a variety of architectural styles. Designers often specify Richlite for the inherent strength that enables the surface to accommodate long spans and cantilevers without extra support. All Richlite materials are made either with FSC-Certified or postconsumer recycled paper to minimize the company’s environmental impact. In addition, Richlite products are GREENGUARD certified for indoor use in residential, school and institutional environments and contribute to LEED points. The surfaces are produced using an innovative and efficient WE™ (Waste-to-Energy) manufacturing system that captures toxins and re-circulates heat to greatly minimize fuel consumption, pollution and carbon emissions…
