ALVIC has introduced the highly anticipated Zenit 3.0, a new generation of its super matte lacquered surface with a silky touch and anti-fingerprint properties, first launched in 2014. With this latest advancement, the company aims to once again transform the world of interior design.
Zenit 3.0 is the culmination of years of research and development by ALVIC’s innovation team, who have refined their iconic super matte lacquer technology to offer enhanced durability and an improved tactile experience.

The updated Zenit 3.0 offers superior resistance to scratches and high abrasion, making it suitable for both horizontal and vertical applications. The product is engineered to maintain maximum colour stability and achieves an ultra-matte finish by minimising light reflection through its microscopic surface structure. Moreover, ALVIC’s lacquering process is entirely ecological, emitting no volatile organic compounds into the atmosphere.
