As a craftsperson, DIYer, or fabricator, you are always looking for new, cutting-edge, quality materials to expand your options. Solid surface is one of the most versatile and unique materials available. Consider some of the many benefits to using solid surface material:
- Easy to work with
- Literally seamless
- Extremely durable and sustainable
- Nonporous and hygienic
- Offered in a wide selection of colors and patterns
- Easily repaired if damaged
- No bowing, cupping or warping
- No grain or splitting to worry about
Solid surface material is also a great alternative to wood. Solid surface is not affected by changing humidity. Its nonporous and hygienic properties make it a perfect countertop choice for water prone areas such as kitchens and bathrooms. In fact, it is so nonporous that you can remove a mark left by a permanent marker, for example, with a mild cleanser and Scotch- Brite® pad.
Another bonus to working with solid surface is that it carries the National Sanitation Foundation certification (NSF 51), which means it’s a suitable surface for a food preparation.

It’s nice that you mentioned how solid surface has a nonporous and hygienic property that makes it a perfect countertop choice for water prone areas like kitchens and bathrooms. I went to the hospital the other day to visit a friend and I remember seeing a shower room that looked different from the usual. I heard it was a solid surface shower and it seems quite interesting.
