One, economical and environmentally friendly artificial stone countertops
artificial stone countertops: There are three types: resin board, composite acrylic board, and pure acrylic board. Resin board refers to a board that does not contain acrylic components, composite acrylic refers to a board with an acrylic content of 10% to 30%, and a pure acrylic refers to a board with an acrylic content of more than 30%. The higher the acrylic content, the milder the hand feel, which is close to plastic. On the contrary, the feel tends to be colder and closer to stone.

Using unique bonding and polishing technology, artificial stone countertops can be seamlessly spliced, there are no pores on the surface, and there is no place for dirt and bacteria. Artificial stone has rich textures and colors, which is completely comparable to stone, but it has no radiation and is easier to clean. It is an ideal substitute for natural marble.
Disadvantages: the naturalness is obviously insufficient, the texture is relatively fake, the price is higher, and the anti-scalding ability is not strong. If the object is too hot, the color will fade, and the hardness is not enough to cause scratches. In addition, some low-priced and inferior countertops on the market are prone to oil infiltration.

Once the countertop is scratched by a sharp tool, it will leave irreparable marks. Dirty things can easily be hidden in these fine scratches, so you must pay special attention to it when wiping the surface.
