Frequently Asked Questions – FAQ’s

1. What is architectural film and how does it work?
Architectural film is a high-performance finish applied directly to existing surfaces like walls, millwork, doors, and facades. It replicates natural textures—wood, stone, metal, marble, and matte finishes—providing a modern, cost-effective alternative to traditional renovations.

2. Can architectural films be applied to both residential and commercial spaces?
Yes. FORMA specializes in residential and commercial surface upgrades, offering solutions for homes, offices, retail spaces, and large-scale commercial projects.

3. Are FORMA’s films durable and waterproof?
Absolutely. Our high-performance architectural finishes are resistant to scratches, moisture, and daily wear, ensuring long-lasting performance in high-traffic or high-use areas.

4. How long does installation take?
Installation time depends on the scope of the project. Small surfaces may take a few hours, while larger commercial installations may take several days. Our process is designed for efficiency, minimizing disruption.

5. Will my business or home experience downtime during installation?
No. One of the key benefits of architectural film installation is that it is non-invasive. Businesses can continue operations, and residents can remain in their homes throughout the project.

Yes. FORMA’s films are a sustainable surface solution and eco-friendly renovation alternative, reducing waste by extending the life of existing walls, millwork, and fixtures instead of replacing them.
