What is HIMACS?
HIMACS is a strong, solid surface material made from a mix of acrylic and natural minerals. It is almost as tough as natural stone, but can be smoothly shaped and cut like wood
Where can I use it?
It is incredibly versatile! People mostly use it for kitchen worktops, seamlessly integrated bathroom sinks, and furniture, but it can even be used for the outside cladding of buildings.
Is it safe and eco-friendly?
Yes, it is extremely safe for your home. It is completely free from harmful emissions, formaldehyde, and silica, ensuring your indoor air stays clean. Plus, some colours are made with up to 16% recycled materials.
Is it easy to keep clean?
Extremely. HIMACS is completely non-porous and can be joined together without any visible seams. This means there are no cracks or joints for dirt and germs to hide in, making it highly hygienic.
Can it be fixed if it gets scratched?
Yes! If you accidentally scratch or dent the surface, a professional can easily sand it down and repair it so it looks completely brand new again.
How thick should it be for a kitchen worktop?
For kitchen worktops, the standard thickness is 12mm to ensure it is strong enough to handle daily use. Thinner options (like 6mm) are available, but these are generally meant for wall cladding.
Does it come with a guarantee?
Yes, HIMACS is designed to last a very long time and comes with a 15-year limited installed warranty, provided it is installed by a professional and looked after properly.
