Solid surface guides
Short, practical guides written from the manufacturer's data sheets. Each one answers the questions we are asked most on real projects.
These solid surface guides are written for the people who specify, build and maintain commercial interiors. Every figure comes from the manufacturer’s catalogues and the TÜV Rheinland and SGS test reports. Where we have no data, we say so.
