DOBEL® film laminated steel and aluminium by Metalcolour, offers the possibility for design, form and function in an industrialized and economical way. The combination of metal properties (strength and shapeability) together with design properties in laminates gives a versatile material applicable to many areas of use.

In the early 70s, Metalcolour played an active role in setting a new standard for material choice and the manufacturing of cruise ship interiors. By introducing DOBEL® Film Laminated Metal in 1974, Metalcolour initiated the transition from using piece coated traditional materials to using Metalcolour pre-painted metal and film laminated metal, which resulted in a bit of a revolution for the industry. With the transition came a number of benefits including safety and durability properties.

Through the DOBEL® brand, Metalcolour is continually pushing the standard to higher levels. By using a heat-applied, nonstick protective foil as a standard, the surfaces are securely protected from damages during production and handling. Once the end product is finalized the protective foil can be easily removed leaving the surface clean, ready to use with no glue residues on the surface.

Metalcolour states that ”DOBEL® is freedom in design”, which we consider almost to be an understatement in this context. The number of designs we offer is huge and you can even get an exclusive design of your own for a special purpose. With the possibility to choose thickness of the metal base for different properties you can make the product as strong and light as needed. All this together, makes film laminated metal an excellent choice for cruise ship interior design.
