To choose a kitchen countertop is not at all simple. This is known to all those who, when decorating a kitchen or bathroom, pondered various solutions - choose wood, stone, conglomerate? The countertop should not only be functional and durable, but should also match the interior design. What kind of countertop to choose for a modern space?
The modern kitchen is the heart of the home, where we spend a lot of time and devote ourselves to culinary activities. Increasingly, it is also open to the living room, so design order, ergonomics and aesthetics similar to those of the living room are important in the decor. A particularly important role is played by suitable countertop surfaces, which are heavily used in the kitchen area. We expect them to be highly resistant to damage, easy care, but also interesting design.

In modern interiors, materials that look light and elegant are very popular. Ultra-thin compact countertops are characterized by extraordinary durability and strength. They are offered in a wide range of currently fashionable decors and structures and with 3 types of core: black, gray and white. The dyed core gives a unique visual effect and does not require additional edging. The countertops are 12 mm thick and are highly resistant to mechanical damage. The type of material used to make the countertop is also used to make, among other things, swimming pool cabinets in aquaparks, where it is subjected to many endurance tests by teenage testers.

Ultra-thin countertops do not require impregnation. Wine, coffee or tea stains can be easily removed from them. They also meet the expectations of environmentally-minded people. No chemicals are needed to clean and care for them - natural means will suffice. Due to their resistance to moisture and high temperatures, they can also be cleaned with a steam cleaner. In this way, without detergents and using the most ecological way of cleaning, it is easy to get rid of dirt and harmful microorganisms. It is also worth noting that the countertops are fully safe in contact with food, which is confirmed by the corresponding certificate.

Thin compact countertops provide the kitchen with an aesthetic, elegant and modern look. They also allow the use of non-standard design solutions. They make it possible to install both inset and undermount sinks. In the compact countertop we can mill out the draining boards. Such a possibility is not available in traditional worktops that are used in kitchens. This would result in damage to the laminate layer, resulting in the ingress of various undesirable substances into the core, which is most often particle board.
Due to their high resistance, ultra-thin countertops are a great alternative to composites and conglomerates, as well as wood or stone. Unlike natural raw materials, they do not require impregnation, and therefore have high resistance to damage, moisture and stains. It is also a great idea to use the material both on the countertop and as a countertop wall. This is a very popular current solution in kitchen design, which allows you to introduce the same material, in the same decor and texture as the countertop. This creates a uniform surface that looks fashionable and attractive.
