Durasein® solid surface is a nonporous, homogeneous surfacing material and is composed of approximately two-thirds natural minerals (ATH- alumina trihydrate, aluminum hydroxide) and one-third high strength resin (Polymethylmethacrylate or PMMA). Durasein®, a high-performance material, has a pleasant, warm to the touch characteristic similar to that of natural stone. Durasein®is chemical resistant, stain resistant, heat resistant and easy to clean, requiring minimal maintenance. Durasein® is available in a wide range of colors with outstanding aesthetics. Durasein® is available in many thicknesses (4 mm, 6 mm, 9 mm, 12 mm, 19 mm and 25 mm) and can be fabricated with standard woodworking tools. Sheets can be spliced together using color-coordinated adhesives giving virtually inconspicuous seams. Sheet material may be thermoformed allowing fabrication of endless designs having curved sections. Durasein® is available not only as sheets but also shapes, e.g., sinks, showertrays and bathtubs. Durasein® Solid Surface warrants the original residential and/or commercial purchaser of our solid surface materials to be free of manufacturing defects for a period of 10 years starting from the date of installation. Durasein® solid surfaces must be fabricated and installed in accordance with the "Durasein® Fabrication and Installation" guidelines. Durasein® solid surface material is used in furniture applications, cabinetry, countertops, interior columns, nurses’ stations for healthcare, reception desks and decorative wall designs in Hospitality, as well as other indoor applications stairs, railings and other design applications. Durasein® recommended colors have been used in outdoor applications such as signage, wall decorations, and benches. Durasein® may help contribute to U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) LEED® points.

Durasein® sustainability report highlights that Durasein® protects the health of people and the planet through collaborative actions. More than 200 tons of pre-consumer acrylic resin waste materials from the manufacture of products are repurposed into other Durasein® products annually; 100% of process wastewater is filtered, reclaimed, and recycled; and 1600kw clean energy sourced from photovoltaic panels on the roof powers its manufacturing facility. Durasein® is engineered to help maintain a safe environment for human health from air quality to food safety. Durasein® does not have Crystalline Silica as an ingredient. Durasein® is formaldehyde free, has low volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions (Greenguard and Greenguard Gold Certified), is free of nanoparticles, and is Certified by NSF to the strictest level, Food Zone, for all food types.
