Overview:

Range of low VOC pre-finished acrylic solid surfaces. Suitable for residential and commercial applications.

Product Description:

Non-porous, low VOC, chemical and stain resistant acrylic polymer solid surfaces. Product range is suitable for applications including kitchen benchtops and splashbacks, vanity tops, restaurant and café tables, office desks, reception counters, shower walls, and laboratory benchtops.

LG HI-MACS surfaces have a stone-like appearance, and offer design flexibility through a wide range of coloured and patterned sheets that can be cut into any shape. Seamless joining system leaves no cracks or silicone where mould and bacteria could potentially grow.

Certified downstream fabricators achieve different surface finish levels at the request of the client. These finish levels are achieved by fine-grade sanding alone.

LG HI-MACS surfaces require adhesion (silicon) to a substrate to be installed.
