-- Wilsonart’s New Oasis Series Celebrates Transparency and the Layering of Color
to Achieve a Random-looking Design --

TEMPLE, Texas, June 9, 2004 – Wilsonart® Laminate is proud to introduce the new Oasis Series of decorative laminate.  This collection takes design inspiration from natural sources, such as natural crystallization and leaf composition, and uses them in the man-made artistic application of laminate design.  The color in all three patterns of the Oasis Series appears sheer, fractured and layered in a random, but small-scale pattern, similar to stained glass or tile mosaics.  The expert illusion of dimension is achieved through high-fidelity printing and top-quality pearlescent inks. 

Oasis features Wilsonart’s standard scratch-resistant matte finish, which has a moderately reflective value, and is available in the following patterns:

• Garden Oasis – Soft yellow-influenced green with traces of blue and brown yield a strong neutral color combination.
• Desert Oasis – Amber with hints of light gold and subtle orange and red undertones provide warmth and versatility to one of today’s most popular color families.
• Aztec Oasis – Dark chocolate brown with red and green undertones throughout the pattern create a rich color design.

Wilsonart International, based in Temple, Texas, is a leading manufacturer of decorative surfacing products, including Wilsonart® Laminate.  The company’s laminate was a nominee in the 2004 Cooper-Hewitt, National Design Museum’s National Design Awards.
