Current production technologies facilitate innovation with the development of new ultra-modern materials with metallic finishes, ideal for kitchen furniture configurations.
The metal can be used in combination with stone and/or wood finishes, due to its tactile and visual qualities, yet it excludes the use of solid materials and colors (such as painted MDF, for example).
Using a metal finish, we can design an environment of technological inspiration, but balanced with natural essences to define an aristocratic atmosphere with high-tech industrial influences, which will stand the test of time.

Fenix Doha is a nanotechnological material part of the large family of HPL (high-pressure laminates), developed by the Italian company Arpa Industriale, which retains all the qualities of Fenix, with the defining detail that unlike the NTM or NTA version of Fenix, it has a speckled appearance with golden undertones, in contrast to its velvety texture.

✓ METAL
Special varnishes are part of the most exclusive and high-quality finishes that can be used in the process of customizing a kitchen space; if used in interior design, they bring elegance and a polished charm to the composition.
We can bring shiny or matte metals to kitchen design, either innovative or with a tradition honored over time, which illuminates the appearance of bold kitchen compositions and stand out through charm, originality, and attention to detail.
If you need a kitchen material that stands out, with a bright and polished effect, you can choose a range of special metallic finishes. They can be used in a lacquered kitchen project, designed for durability, with a timeless charm.
✓ BRUSHED METAL
This is a lacquer finish with Ottone metallic effect (brass) that has been manually scratched for a more dramatic effect.
✓ METAL LIQUID
The range of kitchen finishes is enriched with liquid metal lacquer, which reproduces the look of different metals such as brass, bronze, copper, titanium or stainless steel to create a unique collection of kitchen fronts.
✓ METALSATIN
Metalsatin finish is a type of coating that involves the use of paints with different types of metal powders, depending on the effect desired.
In this way, with the help of special procedures, the factory can create a series of effects and reflections similar to metal.
Available finishes are Champagne, Brass, Dark Bronze, and Graphite.
✓ MICROLAM
Microlam was developed by Zampieri Cucine and is a low-pressure, ultra-thin laminate that reproduces various materials, such as metal, wood, resins, and solid colors.
Microlam laminates are suitable for door fronts and wall panels, but, using a thicker laminate, it can also be used as a worktop or for snack countertops.
✓ MICROLAM VELVET
Ultra-thin low-pressure laminates acquire a super matte and silky effect, similar to that of velvet, through a special varnishing procedure.
This effect is achieved by a superficial polymerization, creating undetectable folds of different heights. The desired opacity is obtained by triggering a large-scale light reflection.
The Microlam Velvet line uses a varnish based on excimers, ensuring the drying of the varnish with special UV lamps in the absence of oxygen. This process offers a very matte effect and a very high scratch resistance (4 newtons). This method also guarantees an anti-fingerprint effect, preventing fingerprints.
✓ IRON
Zampieri Cucine introduces one of its new finishes: the IRON finish. A varnish made of metal powders whose effect is very similar to cast iron and is very pleasant to the touch.
The IRON finish is available in 4 variants (slate, titanium, copper, and dark bronze), for all kitchen and/or living room models.
DISADVANTAGES: not suitable for worktops.
We develop kitchen projects from a holistic perspective – geometry, special materials, technical solutions – to bring more personality to your kitchen space.
If you decide to start your new kitchen project with My Kitchen Studio, remember to ask about the range of Special Varnishes at the consulting sessions, you will surely discover a perfect element for you.
