Recycled Surfaces

Originally published on www.CecTops.com

It’s April and it’s time to go GREEN! What better way to save the planet than by installing recycled surfaces in your home.

Imagine the possibilities of recycled glass or porcelain countertops in your kitchen or bathroom.
Customizable and eco-friendly, these unique countertops are easy to maintain and will last a lifetime (with proper care, of course).

Benefits:

Recycled surfaces can be made from recycled glass, paper, and porcelain. By choosing recycled surfaces you are not only cutting down on our planet’s waste, you are also choosing a surface that will benefit your family and their health. Like quartz surfaces, recycled surfaces are non-porous, making them a top choice for keeping bacteria at bay. Recycled countertop surfaces are also very durable as they are heat and stain resistant.

Finishes:

Like other countertop options, recycled surfaces can come in different finishes. Finish options include high gloss, semi-gloss, honed, and matte.

Care:

Not only are recycled surfaces well-loved because of their durability but also because of their care-free maintenance! Simply clean everyday spills with a soft cloth, mild soap, and warm water. To prevent stains, spills should be cleaned as soon as possible. For stubborn stains, you can use a non-abrasive brush. Always remember to use hot pads, trivets, cutting boards and coasters for additional protection to ensure the life of your countertops.

Applications:

A great choice for residential and commercial spaces, recycled surfaces are commonly used indoors as countertops, vanity tops, bar tops, fireplace surrounds and tub decks, wall cladding, entryways, and shower surrounds.

Recycled surface countertops offer many benefits and a vast array of beautiful and fun design choices. The added bonus is that they are earth-friendly and affordable. Let’s make your home green and install recycled surfaces with Cutting Edge Countertops.
