Fibo UK has announced the launch of new swatch books and wall panel samples for merchants and installers
The new sales and merchandising tools include Fibo’s new marble, stone-effect and solid colour styles, introduced earlier this year in response to upcoming design trends and the growing demand for bathroom and kitchen wall panels.
Two brand new swatch books are available from Fibo, showing the extensive panel choice with or without grouting-effect lines: one includes all of Fibo’s premium Scandinavian and Contemporary Tile Effect collections, while the other showcases the Signature and Timeless ranges. In addition, the swatch books have also been designed with a hard-wearing loop that makes it easy to flick through the different options and styles.
Lightweight samples are also available in each of Fibo’s new designs so that merchants can demonstrate the overall look and feel of the wall panels, including the robust 7-layer WBP Plywood core on the reverse. The rectangular samples are designed to be used in pairs which click together using the unique Aqualock tongue and groove system.
Managing Director Scott Beattie comments: “We support our stockists with stand-out products that help them maximise their sales opportunities. Our new swatch books make it easy to see and feel the difference between a matt or high gloss finish for example, and compare our tile-effect designs with ‘seamless’ options. We’ve seen a big increase in demand for our high-performance wall panels as stockists and their customers realise the practical benefits of panels over traditional tiles without comprising on style, quality or durability.”
