Clone and rename a laminate or finish

Create a laminate or finish that is not in the warehouse by cloning a similar one and renaming it.

1. This clone-and-rename flow is commonly used to represent a local or new-market laminate brand that is not in the warehouse — clone a similar-looking laminate, choose the destination category, then rename the clone to the new brand and model details; alternatively upload your own texture finish.

2. Because cloning duplicates the SKU's finish material rather than sharing it, the thickness of a veneer or laminate can be changed by cloning the SKU and editing the thickness on the clone, leaving the original untouched.

7. The design portal should be reloaded afterwards so the new material appears.

8. Because the clone starts as a full copy of the original's settings, its thickness and other specific properties must be updated manually on the clone for the new material.

10. After cloning and renaming the laminate, refresh the cache from the Production Settings tab so the new material becomes available to all users in the design environment.

11. The thickness value is changed on the clone in the Edit SKU Properties form, under Product Dimensions, in the field labelled Thickness, and saved with Update Details.
