During DOMOTEX in Shanghai from 21 until 23 March 2017, Materia will be present with the exhibition “Noble Naturals”. The theme of this exhibition is the beauty and the character of the new natural materials. The specifier will be treated to no less than 300 special material samples.

Throughout the centuries, natural materials such as wood, bamboo and natural stone have been immensely popular because of their natural and characteristic looks. Metal and glass as well are familiar, well-known, and come from natural sources, as opposed to artificial materials such as plastic and composites. With this exhibition, Materia focuses on the diversity, the enormous possibilities and the performance of the current sustainable and natural materials.

Thanks to material innovations and technological developments, materials can be acoustic, super isolating, self-cleaning, lightweight or scratchproof. The aesthetic possibilities are endless as well. How about translucent natural stone, foamed metal, glass that changes colour, wood veneer made of wood as thin as paper, or acoustic, 3D shaped cork for amazing effects? Materials not only for the floor, but for walls, furniture, cabinets, doors, sunshade and even façades. The natural materials save the environment, they are renewable, stimulate the circular economy and can be recycled. At the exhibition, Materia also shows recycled materials, such as panels made from recycled jeans, stone made from recycled concrete and flooring made from coffee grounds! In short: you cannot miss this inspiration, so come to “Noble Naturals” during DOMOTEX in Shanghai.
