What material is better for kitchen countertops?

If only from a practical point of view, based on the three indicators of "antibacterial, easy to handle, temperature resistance and wear resistance", stainless steel countertops are really the best choice for cabinet countertops. Have you noticed that in the central kitchen of the hotel, the operating tables are all stainless steel countertops, but stainless steel countertops also have a fatal problem, that is, they are not beautiful enough.

In addition to stainless steel, there are four common kitchen countertops on the market, namely:

First, the artificial stone synthesized by adding acrylic is easy to blend and rich in color;

Second, the hardness, texture and color of quartz stone made of quartz powder are closer to natural stone;

Third, fire-proof boards and density boards are covered with fire-proof paper, which is more common in IKEA. The advantage is that the shape is particularly rich;

Fourth, natural stone, the advantage is that it is a real stone, the disadvantage is that it is a real stone.

Among the above four materials, the quality of fireproof board is the worst, and natural stone is the most popular.

From the point of view of ordinary consumers, it is ok to choose artificial stone or quartz stone. They are all materials synthesized by modern technology, with compact structure, high density, beautiful and practical.

But when buying, in addition to color, texture, hardness, but also pay special attention to these two indicators:

1. If you choose artificial stone countertops, please ask the merchant to issue a certificate of acrylic content. The higher the acrylic acid content, the better the quality of artificial stone. For example, the acrylic acid content of artificial stone countertops produced by DuPont can reach 45%, while the acrylic acid content of artificial stone countertops produced by some unscrupulous manufacturers is only 1%-2%.

2. If you choose a quartz stone countertop, please ask the merchant to issue a certificate of quartz powder content. The higher the content of quartz powder, the better the quality of quartz stone countertops. We consumers must do our homework before buying, and don't be deceived by the marketing behavior of the merchants.

Finally, to sum up, Yunhe thinks the best countertop material is stainless steel. In addition, artificial stones or quartz stones produced by regular manufacturers are good choices. Forget the material of the fireproof board, the quality is too poor.
