The kitchen worktops industry is not usually renowned for its fast pace and technological trends, but like any other sector there is a steady pulse of research and development behind the scenes. We speak to Dave Mercer to discuss three new materials Sheridan Fabrications are bringing to market in 2019.
What’s the name of your first new material? Apollo Compact What’s it made from? Solid Grade / Compact Laminate Can you tell us more? Yes, of course, Solid Grade Laminates have been used in commercial sectors for a number of years now but have only recently entered the domestic market. Created from celluloid fibres bound together with Phelonic resin, Solid Grade Laminate (also known as Compact Laminate) is a dense, highly durable surface which is completely impermeable to water and highly resistant to abrasion & staining.
