What is Durat made of?
Durat is a highly durable solid surface material formulated from 30%–40% polyester resin, 30%–40% Aluminum Trihydrate (ATH), and 20%–50% recycled post-industrial plastics.It is available in hundreds of colors and can be customized with speckled or speckless designs.
Is Durat an environmentally friendly choice?
Yes! Durat is a pioneer in the circular economy. It incorporates up to 30% recycled plastic waste, which reduces the need for virgin raw materials. Additionally, it is manufactured using 100% renewable electricity and contributes to LEED green building ratings.
How do I clean my Durat surfaces?
For daily cleaning, simply wipe the surface with a mild, soap-based solution (like liquid dishwashing soap) and water. Durat resists most everyday stains, but you should avoid using harsh solvents like acetone, which can damage the surface.
What if my countertop gets scratched or stained?
Because Durat is solid all the way through, it is fully renewable and repairable. Stubborn stains or minor scratches can be easily removed by light manual or power sanding. After a quick sand and polish, the surface can be fully restored to its original, good-as-new condition.
Will there be visible seams or joints in my countertop?
No. Durat sheets are joined together using a specially matched two-component adhesive. Once the adhesive cures and the area is sanded, the seams are virtually undetectable, allowing you to have a flawless, continuous surface that spans for tens of meters.
Is Durat safe for food preparation and indoor air quality?
Absolutely. Durat is certified food-safe (tested by VTT Biotechnology and Food Research) making it perfect for kitchens and food-handling areas. It also boasts an RTS Class M1 emission rating, meaning it is completely free of VOCs, formaldehyde, and other harmful toxins, ensuring excellent indoor air quality.
Does Durat come with a warranty?
