Choose NEXGEN™
We work directly with an international supplier – Olon Industries, Inc.- Radford Cabinets, Inc. They are the only western U.S.-based cabinet manufacturer to offer the new NEXGEN™ products. NEXGEN™ products consist of Thermally Fused laminate (TFL) in various profiles, textures, and colors offering a wider variety of options and unique characteristics that you won’t find in solid wood products.
With over 200 stock color and finish options, NEXGEN™ laminates are produced with built-in antimicrobial protection to help protect against bacteria. The multiple colors and finishes make it nearly impossible to differentiate from real wood with perpendicular grain directions. Additionally, NEXGEN™ products may have zero formaldehyde emissions on assembled doors. No staining or finishing is required in the manufacturing process.
Benefits of the NEXGEN™ Product Line
- No additional finishing.
- No conflict with California and EPA finishing restrictions.
- Unlike stained and finished wood doors, NEXGEN™ will not degrade or deteriorate in a few years.
- Unlike RTF doors, NEXGEN™ laminates have no “thin” or stretched areas (susceptible to tears and moisture penetration) allowing for consistent performance.
- NEXGEN™ doors are not subject to failure due to heat or glue deterioration.
- NEXGEN™ is a trademark of Olon Industries.
Notable Features
- Olon 5-piece door components in NEXGEN™ laminates offer a permanent antimicrobial surface with higher heat, scratch, and stain resistance versus RTF (vinyl) and solid wood doors.
- There is no staining or finishing required, therefore saving time, labor, and equipment costs. (Glazing or highlighting can be added.)
- Our tight manufacturing tolerances allow you to produce beautiful miters.
- We use only premium MDF for a better quality product. While solid wood profiles tend to warp and twist, MDF profiles remain straight. (MDF FSC, NAUF, Fire Rated or Water resistant cores also available.)
- Zero formaldehyde emission may be achieved with assembled doors.
- KCMA certified. A lower capital investment is required to set up a manufacturing facility in comparison to other types of door production.
- Wrapped profiles are also available in vinyl, foil paper, polypropylene, 60-gram paper and many veneers.
