Description
Overview
Natural look. Next-level performance.
NovoCore® Original Commercial NaturTrend SE+ is where design precision meets advanced surface technology. Developed for premium commercial environments, it delivers an ultra-matte, low-gloss finish (just 3-4%) that closely replicates the understated look of real timber – without unwanted shine or reflection.
This isn’t just about aesthetics. The innovative SE+ surface treatment provides enhanced resistance to stains, scratches and heavy foot traffic, while its antimicrobial properties support cleaner, more hygienic environments – ideal for spaces where performance and wellbeing go hand in hand. The NovoCore NaturTrend SE+ features an advanced nitrogen-infused coating that significantly enhances resistance to scuffing and wear, delivering superior durability and positioning it as a leading product in the market.
Designed for large-scale installations, it ensures visual consistency across expansive areas while maintaining long-term durability and ease of maintenance.
For architects, designers and specifiers, it solves a familiar challenge: achieving a truly natural wood finish in commercial spaces – without the maintenance burden of real timber.
In short: a refined, ultra-natural finish with performance to match high-end commercial demands.
