Sustainable materials for your kitchen countertop

Durable materials for your kitchen worktop

Sustainable living is becoming increasingly important, and you can also choose sustainable options in the kitchen. Consider a water-saving faucet or energy-efficient appliances, but did you know that the kitchen worktop can also be sustainable?

Sustainable kitchen countertops

Reducing material use, searching for reusable materials with a lower footprint, and developing new products from residual materials are all opportunities to realize sustainable kitchen countertops. The development of new circular concepts allows for different choices when it comes to sustainable kitchen countertops.

Greengridz®

TopLaminateDecorTop and FENIX 0.9 kitchen countertops also have sustainable variants. The base layer then consists of Greengridz: a lightweight material that is not only much more durable than plywood and particleboard, but also stands out head and shoulders above them in terms of quality.

Cosmolite® and Obsidiana

Cosmolite® and Obsidiana have a unique look as the latest kitchen countertops made from recycled minerals or glass! The kitchen countertops are not only made from recycled materials, but can also be 100% reused.

Greengridz©: sustainable kitchen worktop

Greengridz® is an innovative, award-winning and patented core material for kitchen countertops that can be laminated with TopLaminate®, DecorTop® or FENIX®. This durable, waterproof material leaves a smaller carbon footprint than plywood, which is widely used for kitchen countertops. Also discover the many other benefits offered by Greengridz:

  • More resistant to impact damage than plywood
  • More resistant to water than plywood
  • More stable and lighter than plywood
  • More economical than plywood
  • Available in thicknesses of 20, 32, 38, 50, 60, 80 mm

The green benefits of Greengridz

The production of Greengridz® requires fewer raw materials compared to traditional countertops. That makes its carbon footprint relatively small, but it has many more green features: in fact, the manufacturing process is also green. It is FSC and Carb2 certified, and because Greengridz® is lightweight, less fuel is needed to transport it. This ensures that even less CO2 is emitted throughout the production process. And it doesn't stop there, it's also more economical than conventional base materials!

Cosmolite: Luxury kitchen countertop from ... waste!

Can industrial waste also be beautiful? Anyone who sees the latest kitchen worktop from Dekker Zevenhuizen will say a resounding yes! Cosmolite® for 100% consists of minerals from industrial waste, derived from the stone industry, with resin. It has the same properties as traditional composite stone, but is 100% recyclable.

Long veined patterns

From the base material, sheets are pressed one at a time, which also creates beautiful, long-veined patterns. Those plates are processed by Dekker into a kitchen worktop. A kitchen worktop that can be recycled endlessly after use. Waste no more!
