Laminex – a brand synonymous with laminate surfaces to the extent that its name has become a byword for the product itself – further solidifies its position at the forefront of design innovation.
April 8th, 2025
Laminex has become deeply ingrained in the industry, with its lauded name moving beyond being just a trademark and evolving into a generic term for laminate surfaces – now often used as a catch-all for the product itself. This widespread recognition is a tribute to its revered history in Australian manufacturing and design modernisation, with the brand continuing to play an active role in shaping the evolution of contemporary interiors. After 90 years of commitment to quality, Laminex remains integral to Australian homes and workplaces. Thus, it should come as no surprise that the addition of Laminex Architectural Panels to the product range elevates the ability to improve wall, ceiling, and joinery applications with ease.
Laminex Architectural Panels are an innovative system that reconsiders the timber batten concept, presenting a prefinished panel solution that offers visual and practical efficiency. Available in three linear profiles, the panels feature a selection of curated Woodgrain décors from the Laminex Colour Collection, including an array of décors such as Raw Birchply, Classic Oak, Sublime Teak, Danish Walnut, Planked Urban Oak and Blackened Legno – each respectively designed to complement varying design approaches. The profiles – VGroove 100, Batten 40 and Batten 60 – offer versatility, while options such as the Black Shadowline or the Natural Shadowline of Sublime Teak provide an added layer of quiet luxury.

At the heart of the Laminex Architectural Panels system is the InvisiLock joining mechanism, a solution that facilitates an invisible fixing method, ensuring a continuous surface while preventing warping or gaps over time. Conceived from decorated MDF, the panels are durable – resilient to scratches, stains and impacts – making them ideally suited to environments where aesthetic and durability are paramount and need to coexist, without the compromise of one another. Additionally, the advanced system reduces installation time significantly – up to three times faster than traditional batten solutions – maximising efficiency.
Designed and manufactured in Australia, the Laminex Architectural Panels range represents the allegiance to sustainable material sourcing, proudly bearing Global Green Tag Certification, emphasising the environmental responsibility paramount to Laminex.
