The easy to clean quality of Solid Surfaces makes every day hygiene of countertops a much simpler process. This is due to their non-porous quality and the lack of seams and cracks which prevents any kind of liquids or other particles from filling in and letting germs and bacteria grow. The seamless and continuous quality of the solid surface countertops also prevents the dirt to build up on the countertops since there are barely any cracks and corners for the dirt and bacteria to build up in.

The Stability, and the smooth continuous finish of solid surfaces stems from the fact that it’s reactions are completed to the maximum. When these chemical reactions and bonds have already reacted and settled down, there isn’t any instability to follow. This results in a highly stable solid surface which is inert. This allows it to have larger strength which helps it bear extensive use.
