Beautiful seamless, highly versatile and surprisingly sustainable, solid surface counter tops offer an excellent choice for contemporary counters. Whether used in residential homes, offices, restaurants or even healthcare facilities, solid surfaces are available in a wide range of finishes, colours, and patterns to suit virtually any décor style.

Unlike stone, laminate and wood counters, this type of counter surface is smooth and even, with a consistency that creates a consistent flow across the counter top.
What makes this type of counter worth considering and what benefits does this surface have to offer? In this short guide, we take a closer look at solid surface counter tops to show you just how much value they add to your home, restaurant or office interior.
A Guide to Solid Surface Counter Tops
Offering many benefits, solid surface counter tops remain a sought-after choice for residential and commercial installations. Some of the most notable features of this type of surface include the following:
1/ Solid surfaces are versatile
This type of surface is widely known for its large diversity of colour options. Instead of being colour-coated, colour pigments are mixed into the material, meaning very little chance of chipping or imperfections. In addition to offering a wide choice of colours, this surface also offers a wide range of patterns and finishes. Engraving and other complex designs are also possible, ensuring an even more unique counter top.
2/ Solid surfaces are durable
Solid surfaces are typically far less porous than stone and wood, making this type of counter top durable and long-lasting. Over the years, minimal scuffing can occur, but imperfections are typically easy to fix and can often be sanded off or removed with a surface coating.
3/ Solid surfaces are practical
This type of counter top is also easy to clean and hygienic, thanks to its low porosity. Thanks to its resistance against bacteria, fungal growth and stains, this surface can easily be maintained. This surface is hygienic enough to be used in healthcare facilities and other establishments with strict health codes.
This type of surface requires professional installation to ensure that you get the full benefit in your home or business. Partnering with a trusted installer and supplier is the best way to enjoy all that solid surface counter tops have to offer.
