BLOOM
Beyond the Surface

Core innovation for FENIX^® innovative materials.

Innovation and sustainability are key drivers in the creation of valuable and durable materials for interior design. True to its values, our centre of excellence for technology (Nemho) developed Bloom, a core technology for FENIX NTM^® innovative materials.

Our products are made of paper and thermosetting resins based on phenol. With Bloom, lignin technology has been introduced to reduce the amount of phenol included in the core’s resin by 50%. Lignin is a by-product of the wood industry and is the world’s second most abundant natural polymer in the world after cellulose. Defined as the glue that holds wood fibres together, it is normally used by the pulp industry to produce energy. Its use in thermosetting resins is innovative. 

FENIX NTM innovative materials for interior design are known for their features: extremely matt, soft touch and anti-fingerprint. Thermal healing of superficial micro-scratches is also possible. Bloom technology increases their bio-based composition while maintaining FENIX’s signature properties.  

The bio-based content of FENIX NTM Bloom, verified according to NCS 16785:2016, is certified by an accredited third party with a declared minimum 68% bio-based content. The certificate is available for download on fenixforinteriors.info. 

FENIX NTM Bloom is available in 0.7mm thickness with a black core. 
Its chromatic palette enhances the innovative materials' visual uniqueness and international appeal.
