Samples provide an impression of a full-size sheet but should not be used as a one-to-one reference for comparison with an entire sheet.
Please note that samples appear lighter than a full sheet because they allow light to enter from all sides.
All samples are finished with a scratch-resistant matte coating. Would you prefer a different finish for your order? Just let us know.

Material Samples for Architects and Interior Designers

Plasticiet's sample program provides architects, interior designers, and private clients with tactile access to our recycled solid surface materials before specification or purchase. Karlite translucent panels and Mother of Pearl tiles are specification-grade architectural materials, experiencing their unique properties firsthand is essential for confident material selection and client presentations.

Why Order Samples

Digital images cannot capture Karlite's translucency or Mother of Pearl's shifting iridescent patterns. Physical samples allow you to test materials in your actual lighting conditions, match colors to existing palettes, present options to clients, and evaluate surface texture and finish quality. Architects use samples when preparing specifications for retail interior materials, hospitality projects, and commercial wall cladding applications. Interior designers order samples for residential luxury projects, furniture selections, and feature wall planning. Private clients exploring materials for home renovations benefit from seeing and feeling the quality difference between recycled solid surface materials and conventional alternatives like Corian, acrylic or resin.

Available Samples

Karlite Individual Samples: All seven translucent colors available as A5 sheets (€15 each). Colors include Chalk, Jade, Glacial, Chestnut, Sienna, Quartz, and Pomegranate. Each A5 sample demonstrates the 19mm thickness, matte finish, and light-transmitting properties essential for evaluating backlit panel applications.

Karlite Sample Pack: Complete collection of all seven colors in A8 format plus one mystery sample (€29 total). Cost-effective option for architects and designers evaluating multiple colors for project specifications or comparing translucency levels across the range.

Mother of Pearl Individual Samples: Seven colors available (€30 each). Colors include Classic, Victoria Green, Graphite, Dune, Bosch Green, Gentle Blue, and Happy Orange. Due to the handcrafted production process, each Mother of Pearl sample shows unique swirling patterns, no two sheets identical. Samples demonstrate the 12mm thickness and characteristic shiny finish used in luxury retail projects by Jil Sander, OMA Architects, Ace & Tate and Karl Lagerfeld.

Sample Program Details

All samples ship worldwide within approximately one week. Shipping costs are included within the EU; international orders outside Europe incur additional shipping charges calculated at checkout. Samples are production-grade material, not inferior representations. They're cut from the same sheets we supply for architectural projects and use in our own furniture collection.

For material testing beyond visual and tactile evaluation such as scratch resistance, heat stability, chemical resistance, or installation trials please contact us directly for offcut materials suitable for destructive testing. We provide offcuts free of charge to qualified architects and designers with active project specifications.

Next Steps After Sampling

Once you've evaluated samples and selected materials for your project, contact us for project quotations on Karlite sheets or Mother of Pearl tiles. Our team provides technical specifications, lead time confirmation (typically 2-8 weeks for materials), custom color development for projects 10m²+, and installation guidance. Alternatively, explore our furniture collection to order ready-made pieces crafted from these same materials with 8-week production lead times.
