Question Counter tops (formica)?

I'm new to "Duchmen Owners". I'm hoping a member can help me with my quest.
I currently own a 1998 Duchmen Fold Down Camper model # 1204. Its a great camper but, is starting to show it's age, and could use a little TLC to bring her back up to snuff. Aside from some deteriorating wood on the pop up roof, and the roof entrance side panel, overall the camper is in great shape. The problem I'm having is… I need to replace the counter top panel that houses the sink. I have spent a great deal of time searching the internet to determine the laminate product & color that Duchmen used for my camper but have been unable to find what Duchmen used. I'd like to keep the camper original, and replace the sink countertop with the matching color. The remaining countertops are in perfect cosmetic condition. The laminate Duchmen used on the counters in my camper is a very light beige/off white probably an "almond" with a very light grid type pattern in a slightly darker color. From a distance the grid pattern is virtually invisible and gives the countertops a light beige/almond hue. Do any of you folks have any idea what laminate Duchmen used and perhaps where to purchase it? I really don't want to replace all the laminated countertops in my camper so they all match…. eek!
Thanks for any information any of you might have regarding my countertops. I've included a close up pic of the pattern & color of my counter tops. The grid is made up of 1/8" squares.

Try Wilsonart Laminates. That looks a lot like one we used at a hospital I worked at. Just as an FYI laminates come in different thicknesses. We called them top grade and edge grade. Edge grade was thinner.Hopefully the color is still around but being 17 years old it may be a crap shoot.

Good Luck!
