Are you considering a kitchen remodeling project and you’re not sure what type of material to use? Composite Worktops could be the best solution for you. They are made of multiple materials and are available in two forms: solid surface and engineered stone. The worktops are highly durable and less expensive than marble or granite worktops and come in a myriad of styles and colors.
How Composite Worktops Can Improve your Kitchen Remodel
Composite countertops are used in most commercial kitchens because of their highly functional surface which hinders bacteria and is easy to clean. Composite is heat-resistant, stain-resistant, and scratch-resistant. If you love to cook – or you love your kitchen – consider installing composite worktops. Here are some ways they can spruce up your kitchen.
Keep an Eco-Friendly Kitchen with Composite Work Surfaces
If you are family and kitchen household are all about low impact and sustainability, composite countertops are the way to go. They do not emit VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds) and help reduce toxins in the indoor air. Additionally, they do not release radon gases.
VOCs are present in many household products, such as paints and cleaning products. They are extremely dangerous and can cause nausea, headaches, irritation, and serious damage to the central nervous system.
Composite Worktops are more eco-friendly than traditional counters and they come in a range of colors and styles to match your kitchen’s decor. Take a look at other eco-friendly worktops on Apartment Therapy.

You can cut vegetables or meat on them without worrying about damaging them. You can also place hot utensils on them without ruining them because they are resistant to heat.

They are not damaged by corrosive foods such as lemon and vinegar – you’ll never have to worry about permanent stains. Their non-porous nature also makes them very hygienic, they do not harbor bacteria.
