Teos Surfacing Solution

Teos Surfacing Solution is an innovative engineered stone surface material that combines advanced technology with aesthetic design, offering a sustainable alternative to natural Carrara Bianco Arabescato marble. This sophisticated surfacing solution is composed of natural quartz aggregates, one of the hardest minerals found in nature, combined with advanced polymers through a vibratory pressing process under vacuum conditions. The material features a distinctive dual-color base with opaque and transparent elements that create a three-dimensional visual effect, complemented by unique log vein patterns on each slab that pay homage to its natural marble inspiration. Distinguished by its superior technical properties, including exceptional scratch resistance, non-porosity, and antibacterial characteristics, Teos Surfacing Solution demonstrates remarkable durability with four times greater flexural strength than granite. The material is manufactured in standardized dimensions of 1520mm width and 3100mm height, with customizable thickness options of 20mm or 30mm, making it versatile for various applications including kitchen countertops and architectural surfaces. Its advanced engineering ensures high chemical resistance, thermal shock resistance, and slip resistance, while eliminating the need for annual sealing treatments commonly required for natural stone surfaces. This innovative solution, which earned a Bronze A' Design Award in the Building Materials and Construction Components Design category in 2020, represents a significant advancement in sustainable surface design, offering superior performance characteristics while addressing the growing scarcity of natural marble resources.
