Solid surface countertop material is a man-made, non-porous surface composed of mineral particles (typically aluminum trihydrate or ATH) and resins (acrylic, polyester, or a combination). It is a homogeneous material, meaning it has a consistent composition throughout with no layers.

Key Features of Solid Surface Countertops

• Composition: 33% binding resins and 66% mineral particles like ATH (aluminum trihydrate).
• Appearance: Can mimic the look of natural stone like granite or marble, or come in solid colors and patterns. Acrylic resins give a matte finish while polyester resins provide a glossier look.
• Durability: Nearly non-porous and stain/bacteria resistant. Can withstand heat up to 212°F but may scorch at higher temperatures. Susceptible to scratches from knives and sharp objects.
• Repairability: Scratches and minor damage can be sanded and buffed out relatively easily, even by homeowners.
• Seamless Installation: Adjoining slabs can be seamlessly joined to create a continuous surface without grout lines.

Solid surface countertops offer a mid-range price point between laminates and high-end materials like granite or quartz, typically costing $50-$140 per square foot installed. While not as DIY-friendly as laminates, some experienced homeowners can install solid surface countertops themselves with proper tools.
