Acrylic Solid Surface Bench Tops
Solid surface bench tops are a solid, seamless, non-porous homogenous surfacing material made from natural minerals and acrylic resin. Suitable for commercial projects as well as endless benchtop applications around the home.
Pros
Resistant to staining; no visible joins; hygienic; large variety of colours and patterns; custom-made to your specifications; can be used to create integral sinks and draining boards; dents, cuts and scratches can be easily repaired, the most repairable of bench top surfaces.
Cons
Not heat or scratch resistant, harsh chemicals must be avoided.
Cost
More expensive than most other materials — generally more than natural or engineered stone.
