Richlite is an incredibly durable, sustainable and versatile material made from paper. Originally developed over 75 years ago for industrial tooling and pattern making, Richlite has expanded into diverse industries such as food service, aerospace, action sports, marine, musical instruments, architecture and many more.
Our high grade custom FSC® Certified paper is infused with a thermosetting resin before being laid up by hand and pressed into a solid panel.
Richlite is unlike stone, plastic or solid surface. It fabricates similar to an incredibly dense hardwood and can be milled, sanded, routed and joined.
In addition to being easily machined, the innovative surface material’s mottled appearance, honed look and leathery feel complement a range of interior and exterior applications; such as furniture, cladding, skateparks, signage, foundry patterns, tooling, bar tops, retail displays, food prep surfaces and consumer products.
