Smart look and robust design for Bancontact CASH points thanks to decorative MDF

December 2, 2022

The interior of an unattended building open to the public needs to be able to take a knock or two. How do you keep it looking fresh as a daisy after many years of use? The interior architects at Planet Interior took this into consideration when they were designing Bancontact's CASH points. The answer they came up with was decorative MDF from Unilin Panels.

“We came across decorative MDF while the project was still in the development phase,” recounts Jan Baelus, founder of Planet Interior. "Ines Goeminne, Project advisor at Unilin Panels, pleasantly surprised us with a prototype of decorative Fibralux MR Black in Super Matt finish. Robust black MDF with a stylish look thanks to the transparent lacquer finish: it perfectly matched what we were looking for."
