Solid Surface: Why Quality Should Matter - Shanghai kstone Industrial Co.,Ltd-Factory of Acrylic Solid Surface Sheets

At Kstone, we believe that when it comes to acrylic solid surfaces, quality is the most important factor. With over 16 years of experience in the industry, we’ve built a strong reputation by producing high-quality materials that stand the test of time. However, there is an increasing trend in the market where suppliers offer extremely low prices, which often leads to compromised quality. Here’s why quality matters and why Kstone remains committed to excellence.

The Hidden Risks of Low-Cost Acrylic Solid Surfaces

It’s tempting to consider low-priced acrylic solid surfaces, especially when suppliers offer prices that seem too good to pass up. However, these cheaper alternatives often use lower-quality materials to reduce production costs. The main components of acrylic solid surfaces are acrylic resin and aluminum hydroxide powder. To lower costs, many suppliers opt for:

Recycled acrylic resin, which compromises strength and performance.
Substandard acrylic resins from low-cost suppliers, leading to a weaker material.
Magnesium hydroxide powder instead of aluminum hydroxide powder, reducing durability and stability.

Although these materials may look similar to premium products, the difference in their performance and long-term durability is significant. Lower-quality materials result in surfaces that can easily stain, warp, and degrade over time, causing costly repairs and replacements.

The Importance of High-Quality Raw Materials

To produce a truly superior acrylic solid surface, the raw materials must meet high standards. Kstone sources our acrylic resin from top global suppliers such as LG Chem, Lucite International (USA), and Mitsubishi Chemical (Japan). Our aluminum hydroxide powder comes from trusted suppliers like Chalco, China’s largest aluminum producer, ensuring we always use the best ingredients in our manufacturing process.

We adhere strictly to the proper ratio of acrylic resin, which should never fall below 40% in the final product. By doing so, we ensure optimal bend strength, stain resistance, and chemical resistance, while also maintaining the material’s aesthetic appeal.

Why Choose Kstone Over Other Low-Cost Suppliers?

When you choose Kstone, you’re choosing a brand that values quality over cost-cutting shortcuts. Here’s why:

Durability: Our surfaces are built to last with high-quality materials, meaning they resist staining, scratching, and degradation.
Performance: Kstone’s acrylic surfaces retain their strength and flexibility over time, ensuring long-lasting functionality.
Consistency: Our rigorous quality control standards guarantee that every sheet meets the highest performance benchmarks.

While it may seem tempting to choose low-cost products, these often end up being an expensive choice in the long run due to higher maintenance costs and a shorter lifespan.
