Maintenance and thermal repair of FENIX high-pressure laminate

FENIX high-pressure laminate is an innovative material that elegantly combines a matte, silky surface with excellent durability. Its unique properties are based on patented technology that ensures easy maintenance and the ability to repair minor damage independently.

Maintenance

Caring for FENIX surfaces is straightforward for any user — whether in a home or commercial environment.

Daily cleaning: Use a soft cloth or microfiber cloth with warm water and a mild, non-abrasive cleaning agent. Avoid abrasive sponges and chlorine-based cleaners.

Restoring the matte surface: There are special cleaning products available for matte surfaces that help remove micro-stains and restore a uniform matte appearance.

Deep cleaning: In case of heavier dirt or after prolonged use, deep cleaning is recommended. Alcohol-based but surface-safe cleaning agents — or products recommended by FENIX — are suitable. Clean using circular motions.

Handling stains: Typical stains such as wine, coffee, marker, or oil can usually be removed with a damp cloth and a suitable cleaner. For more stubborn stains, a non-abrasive melamine sponge (magic sponge) may be used.

Thermal Repair

The technological uniqueness of FENIX lies in its surface structure, created from acrylic resins hardened through an electron-beam curing process. This gives the material low light reflectivity, an ultra-matte finish and — most importantly — the ability to repair micro-scratches using heat.

1. Clean the surface thoroughly. Remove all dirt and grease so the heat can work effectively.
2. Cover the damaged area with a damp paper towel — not dripping, but clearly moist.
3. Place an iron on top of the paper towel. Use the iron without steam.
4. Apply heat for up to 10 seconds. Repeat if necessary until the scratch disappears or becomes significantly less visible.
5. Allow the surface to cool and dry.

Note: Deep damage or edge damage cannot be repaired using this method — in such cases, contacting a professional or replacing the component is recommended.

This feature is especially valued on surfaces that are in constant use — such as kitchen countertops, desks, or counter surfaces. It allows FENIX not only to be maintained, but also visually refreshed over time.
