Wilsonart Woodgrains™ Finishes

The smarter way to do wood.

Wilsonart Woodgrains look and feel real from every angle, with extreme wear resistance that outlasts wood veneer.

Our range of ultra-matte to high gloss sheens includes innovative surfaces that perfectly align woodgrain pattern and texture, as well as AEON™ Technology that protects against damage. We’ve curated our woodgrains by pairing each one with the finish that enhances its unique texture the most.

Textures that intensify the depth and dimension of your woodgrain

Discover the same spectrum of sheens available with wood veneer finishes, enhanced with details like linear ticking and ridges, open or dense grains, and even textures that synchronize with the fine details of your woodgrain pattern.

Frequently asked questions

Do Wilsonart Woodgrains offer the same range of sheens as wood veneer?

Yes, Wilsonart Woodgrains are available in a variety of ultra-matte, matte, velvet, eggshell, semi-gloss, and high gloss textures similar to the many types of veneer finishes..

What’s the difference between a Wilsonart Woodgrains finish and a wood veneer topcoat?

Like a wood veneer topcoat, a Wilsonart Woodgrains finish controls the final appearance and texture of your woodgrain. Unlike a wood veneer which requires a stain and topcoat to be applied separately, Wilsonart Woodgrains provide a range of prefinished options for you to choose from, similar to prefinished veneer panels. With AEON Technology, our woodgrains are also up to 16X more wear resistant than wood veneer finishes.

Can I order a sample of any woodgrain combined with any sheen option?

Wilsonart Woodgrains are curated to help you choose the finish that best complements your choice of species, cut, and match. These ready-to-order combinations of species, cut, match, and finish are available in two collections: 100+ in-stock samples, which ship to you in 5 days or less, and 250+ on-demand samples, which ship in less than 21 days. If these collections of 400+ combinations don’t have what you’re looking for, you can request a bespoke sample with your choice of woodgrain and finish. Contact your Wilsonart rep to learn more.

Do Wilsonart Woodgrains have a realistic wood texture?

Our woodgrains highlight what makes wood beautiful — the nuances of grain and texture that makes each species so distinct. Unlike other wood laminate sheets, our woodgrain collection includes finishes that perfectly align the outer texture with the printed grain underneath, creating a similar feel to embossed veneer. These aligned finishes are available for a range of species, including oak and walnut.

Are Wilsonart Woodgrains more durable than wood veneer?

Wilsonart Woodgrains finishes are powered by AEON Technology, and engineered to look as good on Day 10,000 as they do on Day 1. Compared to wood veneer, our woodgrain laminate surfaces are up to: 16X more wear resistant, 9X more dent resistant, 7X more crack resistant, 4X more scratch resistant, 3X more cleanable, and 2X more scuff resistant. This superior laminate durability makes them a smart wood veneer alternative for high-use areas.
