    What Latho makes

    Latho describes its work as giving a new life to surfaces: components for the furniture and furnishing industry, made to the customer's request and specification.

    • Milled panels: three-dimensional machining that gives the panel a new form, in designs such as Portofino, Asolo, Capri, Firenze, Grappa, Milano, Roma, Venezia, Verona, Fold and Ripple.
    • Move: panels made to size by laminating textured veneer or melamine onto a core, in more than thirty patterns.
    • Nathwood: structured veneers with a natural, vintage look, laminated onto a core, from 1.2 mm to 80 mm thick and up to 2570 × 1300 mm.
    • Processing: Structur antiqued solid wood, multi-layer and lightweight panels up to 100 mm thick for shelving, tables and worktops, and Metalwood, which combines aluminium foil with solid wood layers.
