flipIT® Kits are available with black tops, or unfinished so manufacturers can laminate tops to suit.

When flipIT® is specified with SMARTdesks products, tops are typically matched to the table or desk laminate choice. We also make contrasting tops to suit designer choices.

If custom tops are required for flipIT® Kits, price and lead time will be affected. We will do our best to accommodate.
