This color has been discontinued and replaced with white mellotone 2.
![]() | White Mellowtone 2 MT-7-2 |
This replaces White Mellowtone 1. It is misleading that the factory has chosen to name this color with the same name because it is not compatible with the original White Mellotone MT-7-1 laminate. This new product has a whiter background so it will not match your existing panels.
![]() | Gray Matrix MR-6-1 |
This dark gray color looks like wet concrete with pinpoint spots in black. It is widely used in very dark control rooms. It shouldn't be used in high traffic environments where sand is around the area. Sand brought into the room will actually scratch this color off the top resulting in white wear patterns. Caster chairs and poor housekeeping habits will ruin this floor surface. When selecting Gray Matrix, make sure the area will be low traffic and needs to stay very dark. It's light reflective value is one of the lowest of all color choices at 33.8%. Black edge trim is used with Gray Matrix.
