About Acrylic Benchtops products
Acrylic benchtops provide work surfaces for kitchens and laundries. Their place within the wider range of benchtops on ArchiPro allows material and finish comparisons when specifying a home.
Acrylic solid surface benchtops
These benchtops are made with acrylic solid surface sheet material, which is known to be non-porous, easy to clean, and waterproof. This material also allows benchtops to be joined together seamlessly. For kitchen bench tops, confirm sheet dimensions and the positions of sink and cooktop cut-outs with the fabricator before finalising the layout. The cabinet plan should show where the bench tops meet walls and cabinetry, so joins and cut-outs can be coordinated.
Acrylic polymer benchtops
These benchtops are usually made from a range of high-quality acrylic resins including Laminex and Corian.
Acrylic and mix of natural minerals benchtops
Some acrylic benchtops in Australia are made from a mix of acrylic resin and natural minerals, allowing them to look like many different types of materials. When comparing acrylic bench tops, check whether the specification identifies a solid surface sheet or a resin-and-mineral blend; the stated composition clarifies what is being compared.
The advantages of high-quality acrylic benchtops
You’ll likely be doing a lot of chopping, washing, organising, and storing on your benchtops, so it’s important to choose one that you know will last the test of time. While all acrylic benchtops are generally stain-free and chip-free, you’ll find that higher-quality options will look better and retain these characteristics longer. While acrylic provides a seamless finish, low quality choices will be more likely to form cracks with continued use or have surfaces that wear down faster.
How to choose acrylic benchtops that are right for you
The average household in Australia will probably have one or two benchtops. If you want to keep your look streamlined, opt for similar styles and colours of acrylic benchtops in your home. One of the best traits of acrylic benchtops is their versatility, as the plastic can be poured into various moulds and shaped in different styles. Since they come in a wide range of colours and styles, you can really tailor them to your ideal aesthetic or existing home decor. For acrylic kitchen benchtops, compare samples with cabinetry and flooring under the room’s lighting; a grey benchtop can read differently beside warm or cool finishes.
