At Neocon 2019, Formica Group introduced two new products, Intentek™ Wireless Charging Surface and HardStop™ Decorative Protection Panels.

The HardStop™ wall panels (shown above and below) feature a treated fiberglass core that adds durability and fire/impact resistance for high-performance and high-traffic areas in restaurants, schools, universities, airports and elevators.

Intentek™ Wireless Charging Surface, which will be available in late 2019, will have the ability to wirelessly charge Qi-compatible mobile phones by placing devices on it.
