Frequently Asked Questions Meganite

What is Meganite?
Meganite is a premium, highly durable acrylic solid surface composed of acrylic resin and natural minerals. It is completely crystalline-silica-free, meaning it is safe and non-toxic for both everyday use and fabrication. The material is completely non-porous and can be installed with visually seamless joints, making it highly hygienic and ideal for both residential and commercial spaces.
How do I clean my Meganite surface?
Everyday cleaning is very simple! You can routinely clean your countertops or sinks using just soapy water and a sponge, or a standard window cleaner and paper towels. Because Meganite is non-porous, dirt, food, and germs cannot penetrate it, which makes it naturally resistant to most stains.
Can I cut food or place hot pans directly on the surface?
No, you should never cut directly on a Meganite surface; always use a chopping board to prevent scratches For hot items, always use a heat-resistant hot pad or a trivet with rubber-tipped feet under hot pans or heat-generating appliances (like slow cookers) to protect the surface from heat damage.
What happens if my surface gets scratched or damaged?
One of the greatest benefits of Meganite is that it is a renewable material. Because the color and material run all the way through, minor cuts, scratches, and even severe impact or heat damage can usually be sanded and buffed out onsite to completely restore the surface to its original pristine condition.
Is Meganite safe for kitchens and food preparation?
Absolutely. Meganite is NSF/ANSI 51 Certified, meaning it has been independently tested and approved as a safe material for direct contact with all kinds of food. This makes it an excellent, risk-free choice for household kitchens, restaurants, and food service areas.
Is Meganite an environmentally friendly choice?
Yes, Meganite holds GREENGUARD and GREENGUARD Gold certifications for low chemical emissions, ensuring it contributes to safe and healthy indoor air quality. Additionally, Meganite offers a Recycled Series that contains a minimum of 6% pre-consumer recycled material (certified by SCS Global Services), which helps reduce industrial waste and conserves resources.
Does Meganite offer options for healthcare or highly sanitary environments?
Yes, Meganite offers a specialized product range called AcryMed™. AcryMed features integrated zinc-based antimicrobial technology that protects the surface against deterioration, stains, and odor-causing microorganisms. It has been independently proven to reduce the microbial burden of bacteria like MRSA and E. coli by over 99% within 24 hours.
