Tucson, AZ–SurfaceNet LLC d/b/a SolidSurface.com is proud to announce its 10th year as the leading Internet source for purchasing decorative solid surface sheet materials, tools, accessories and custom Corian® vanity tops.  Where it was once thought that no one would buy a sheet of solid surface material off the Internet, SolidSurface.com has achieved a decade of success and over 20% year-over-year growth.  While featuring popular solid surface brands such as DuPont™ Corian®, LG HI-MACS®, Aristech™ Avonite®, Samsung™ Staron®, Formica®, Wilsonart®, Hanwha™ Hanex®, and Meganite®, SolidSurface.com has also built its reputation on strong customer service and ease of searching, ordering and shipping.

The Launch

Using countertop remnants lying around in the garage, co-founders, Ed and Kyle Carpenter, a father and son team, began, as a hobby, creating one-of-a-kind applications with solid surface.  One such item was a  guitar body in the style of a Fender Telecaster and another a sculpture portraying  the loss of the World Trade Center towers on 9/11.  They also began fashioning pieces into cutting boards and selling them on eBay.  After realizing they could work smarter, not harder, by selling remnant pieces, they launched SolidSurfaceSurplus.com.  In early 2007, they formed the parent company SurfaceNet LLC and, in May of 2007, acquired the URL “SolidSurface.com.”  They then started working directly with manufacturers and distributors to source overstock and premium grade material, continuing to build out their various product lines.

SolidSurface.com Industry Rankings

Despite their “in the garage” beginnings, it didn’t take SolidSurface.com long to rise in rank and gain traction in the industry.  In 2016 and 2017, SolidSurface.com was recognized by Internet Retailer and B2BeCommerceWorld.com as one of the top 300 B2B e-commerce companies.  For the past four years, Internet Retailer magazine has recognized SolidSurface.com as a Top 1000 general e-commerce website, not just B2B.  SolidSurface.com was also ranked 39th in the online Hardware/Home Improvement Industry.

They purchase from several categories of products, learn about creating with solid surface material and sometimes order a custom Corian® vanity top that can be ready to ship in 10 business days or less.
