Fenix
We see innovation everywhere, even in tabletops. In 2013, a new type of material called 'Fenix' was developed to meet the needs of two interior design trends: smart materials and matte surfaces. The result is an extremely matte surface that does not reflect light. This helps preserve the tabletop’s color and prevents fingerprints from being visible.
Superficial scratches can even be thermally repaired. Plenty of reasons for Table du Sud to include this material in its collection. Are you new to Fenix, or simply looking for more information about this fantastic material to help you make your choice?

Fenix: a material with many advantages
Looking for a soft yet strong tabletop that's easy to clean? Check! Introducing: Fenix tables!
Nano-tech coating
Fenix is a thin sheet material coated with nano-tech. It consists of over 60% paper and thermosetting resin. The outer layer is treated with a new generation of acrylic resins, which are hardened and fixed through an electron beam curing process. Sounds technical, but the result is a surface with an exceptionally matte and soft texture. Thanks to the electron beam curing process, the surface has developed a kind of “memory.” This memory can be activated with heat to repair small scratches. Handy? Absolutely!
Various shapes, colours, and sizes of Fenix
Table du Sud offers various shape and colour options for your Fenix tabletop. We have rectangular, oval, and round tops in our collection, all of which can be made to your chosen dimensions. Each one is crafted from a solid 12 mm compact laminate sheet.
Another advantage of Fenix is that it’s available in a variety of colours. At Table du Sud, we keep the colours Nero Ingo (black), Bianco Kos (white), Verde Comodoro (olive), and Blue Fes (navy blue) in stock as standard.
Finally, you can combine the Fenix tabletops with our well-known table frames, which we custom-fit to perfectly match the Fenix top of your choice.
Maintenance
Like any other material used in interiors, Fenix surfaces need regular cleaning. They don’t require any special maintenance—just a damp cloth with warm water or a mild detergent. Almost all common household cleaning products or disinfectants are suitable. For most everyday stains, cleaning the surface with warm water and a non-abrasive cloth is sufficient.
Usage
- Use coasters under hot items.
- Do not cut directly on the table—always use a cutting board.
- Use gentle cleaning agents, not harsh chemicals or abrasive products.
- Heavy items such as beer crates or grocery boxes can cause irreparable scratches if dragged across the surface.
Got a scratch after all?
No worries! The included magic sponge is your best friend for minor scratches. Gently rub the scratched area with the sponge to reduce or remove the marks.
For deeper scratches, you can use a damp tea towel and an iron to remove them. Place the damp cloth on the tabletop and gently run a warm iron over it. The surface should look good as new afterward.
