Integral
Seams - Because solid surfaces use bonded integral
seams, joints appear almost invisible, and are impervious
to moisture. This creates a surface that is uniform,
and free of joints that can not only break up the visual
lines of a top, but can allow moisture to penetrate
through the top. This also allows for easy repairs of
almost any damage.
Integral
Sinks - The integral seaming properties allows
for solid surface sinks to be installed without any
visible seams.
Durability
- Most Solid Surface carried by New Surface Co
have a full 10-year warrantee against defects in the
product and installation. This assures that your solid
surface top will remain beautiful for years to come.
Sanitary
- Because solid surface materials are non-porous, it
is difficult for microbes to grow on them. This produced
a top that is ideal for food preparation areas. Many
solid surface materials have FDA compliance for food
contact, and ASTM G-21 and ASTM G-22 qualifications
for bacterial resistance.
Heat
Resistance - Most of the solid surface materials
carried by New Surface Co carry a Class I(A) fire rating.
Cast acrylic solid surface materials meet the stringent
Category 6 standards which require no delay between
constant exposure to hot and cold temperatures. Even
so, it is not recommended that you place a hot pan directly
on any countertop. A matching solid surface cutting
board can be manufactured to put hot pans on.
Design
Flexibility - Because of the solid beauty and
integral seaming properties of Solid Surface, there
are very few layout restrictions. This design flexibility
is ideal for complex forms and work areas.
