THE HOOD NAME: Mount Hood (Elev. 11,239’), the highest mountain in Oregon, offers the longest ski season in North America while providing over 1,200 miles of hiking trails. Hood is also the second most climbed mountain in the world after Mount Fujiyama (Elev. 12,388’) in Japan.
With the outer surfaces of Blue Canyon and alternating layers of Maple Valley, Richlite’s Hood color creates a dynamic look. The layers of Blue Canyon will first appear as a dark cobalt blue and darkens toward navy, eventually becoming midnight blue, while the contrasting Maple Valley layers appears a pale, amber color and over time will darken to sienna.
PATINA: Richlite patinas like a natural wood product and varies from sheet to sheet. Like wood, it will mature in color, giving greater depth to the surface. Over time and with use, Richlite will develop a seasoned appearance characteristic of the material. There will be more luster in areas of heavier use. Overall, it will appear softer and deeper in tone.
SURFACE APPEARANCE: Due to the natural variation in the way fibers lay within the panel, Richlite has a mottled appearance that patterns in a lengthwise direction. This is less apparent in dark colors, however, the mottled appearance is still present.
