What kind of material is used for kitchen countertops?
1. Fireproof board countertops:
Fireproof board countertops are currently being cheap The price is widely welcomed by people. The base material of the fireproof board is MDF and the finish is fireproof board. Thickness: 4mm, colorful and diverse, fire-proof, moisture-proof, oil-proof, acid and alkali resistance, high temperature resistance, easy to clean. However, the compression resistance, scratch resistance, and hardness cannot meet the requirements, and the service life is short. Therefore, fireproof board countertops have become less and less able to meet people's consumer needs, and the market share has dropped from 30% at the beginning to less than 5%.
2, natural marble cabinet countertops
The beauty of natural marble cabinet countertops is nothing to say, rich in color, natural stone texture, and abstraction like splashing ink painting. The overall feeling is noble and atmospheric. However, marble is naturally formed and has a porous structure. If it penetrates into sewage, it is difficult to clean. Residues and stolen goods accumulate, making it difficult to clean them thoroughly and become a breeding ground for bacteria. In addition, because there are more or less heavy metal substances in the stone, it has a certain degree of radiation, which may cause harm to human health.
3. Stainless steel cabinet countertops
Although the appearance of stainless steel cabinet countertops is not as good as granite and marble, the appearance is relatively low-key. However, the stainless steel material is very easy to take care of. Generally, it is very clean after wiping it with a rag. However, steel wire balls and sharp tools can easily add scars to the surface of stainless steel, so pay attention to maintenance.
How to choose kitchen countertop materials
Marble is beautiful and solemn, elegant in style, colorful, with different patterns, no deformation, not afraid of acid and alkali corrosion, High temperature resistance, dust resistance, long service life, and simple cleaning and maintenance. This is the precious charm of marble slabs. However, the texture of marble is relatively fragile. After being hit by a heavy object, it is difficult to repair if a crack occurs.
Stainless steel countertop, bright and clean, with superior performance, there will be particleboard under the countertop, and the surface of the particleboard and stainless steel can not be veneered, and the environmental protection and moisture resistance are poor. If you handle it well It is easier to use. The stainless steel countertop is sturdy, easy to clean, practical, and has good antibacterial effect. However, the splicing of the corners and the insufficient length of the cabinet countertop lacks reasonable and effective processing methods, and it is not suitable for the special requirements of household kitchens such as excessive cross pipes. If the joints are too large to be fully welded, the joints are likely to breed bacteria.

However, artificial stone also has its own shortcomings. The artificial stone countertops with light color are easy to penetrate and affect the appearance.
