Surface Materials
Richlite is a family affair that has operated out of the same location since 1943. In the beginning, Richlite produced its materials for industrial purposes that were adopted by the aerospace, marine and commercial food industries.
Architects and designers discovered the material in the late 1990s and began specifying it for high-end residential and commercial counter tops and reception areas. Beyond counter tops, Richlite is a popular surface material for indoor wall cladding/wainscot, work surfaces, wall caps, stair treads, artistic features and related architectural applications. Though its products are typically used for premium projects, Richlite has always maintained its casual and friendly demeanour over the decades.
