Epoxy Resin Worktop

The worktop shall be monolithic, filled epoxy resin product and shall consist of a polymerized cast resin material formulated to provide a work surface with high chemical resistance characteristics. The combination of epoxy resin and asbestos free inert material shall be oven-cured in molds to obtain maximum physical strength and stability. It is available in thickness of 19mm and different color combination. Edges and corners furnished with flat, radius marine edges to prevent spillage of fluids. Worktops shall be provided with 100mm high backsplash ever shown in drawing same material and thickness as worktop. Applied backsplashes are to be joined to the top at the job site. Also these tops shall be highly resistant to normally used laboratory reagents.

Advantages

Worktop with very good level of chemical resistance, recommended for moisture and wet areas, high temperature load areas, areas with stress on chemical load. Not suitable for sulfuric acid, hydrofluoric acid, nitric acid, potassium permanganate, various solvents.

Phenolic Resin Worktop

Phenolic Resin counter tops are lightweight, hard, durable and highly chemical resistant. They are oil and moisture resistant and do not support the growth of most bacteria and fungus.
It provides us with continuous heat exposure up to 350°F (176°C). And is resistant to scuffs and abrasions. They are the preferred choice for environments where lab experiments are performed in a contaminated free environment. The worktop shall be with 16mm thick Trespa Top. Lab plus, a self supporting flat panel with a cellulose fiber reinforced Phenolic resin core. Each panel has an integrated decorative surface based on pigmented, electron beam cured resins which are resistant to the most aggressive chemicals and easy to clean and maintain.

Advantages

Worktop with good level of chemical resistance, recommended for moisture and wet areas, low class microbiology areas. Not suitable for hydrofluoric acid, nitric acid, sulfuric acid, sodium hydroxide.

Stainless Steel Worktop

The worktop made of 316 grade steel bonded on to wood core with suitable reinforcing on the underside they are available flat edge or raised edges. Solid stainless steel worktops are a unique product innovation, which fits perfectly to the current green sustainability and contemporary minimalism themes. There is no other material as extremely thin and practically indestructible as this. Moreover, it is 100% recyclable because no additional construction is glued to it.

Advantages

Worktop with fair level of chemical resistance, recommended for moisture and wet areas, high temperature load areas, areas with stress on decontamination, clean areas. Not suitable for mineral acids (hydrochloric, sulfuric, nitric, phosphoric, hydrofluoric), cadmium, lactic acid.
