Before entering the architectural market, Richlite Co.’s paper-composite products were used for everything from cutting boards to skate ramps. Cascade comprises built-up layers of FSC-certified or post-consumer recycled paper that may be used in applications such as countertops, shelving, and ceiling panels. The product line offers six color variations, all named after the tallest peaks in the Cascade Range in Washington, where the company is based. • richlite.com
