About - Solid Surface
-
Solid surface is a manufactured material, most often cast into 3/8", 1/4’’, 1/2’’, or 3/4’’ sheets. Solid surface sheets can then be fabricated into a variety of projects, the most common being kitchen and bath countertops.
-
It can be readily cut, routed and sanded like wood and formed into countertops, shower walls, shower floors, tabletops and a myriad of other uses where non-porosity and infrequent maintenance are highly valued.

Solid surface is one of the most repairable materials available.
-
It is composed of acrylic resin, polyester resin or a combination of the two (30%-40%) that is then combined with filler (60%-70%), color pigments and catalyst.
-
Solid surface is a nonporous material that resists stains and bacteria, promoting a cleaner and more sanitary surface.
