Kitchen worktops come in various forms, colours, textures and materials. People are concerned about environmental pollution more than ever leading to the popularity of natural materials. There is a clear inclination towards the use of natural and ‘green’ solid worktops for kitchen units. Solid and hard materials such as
1. Granite
2. Slate
3. Marble
4. Hardwood
Although expensive, these eco-friendly worktops have great aesthetic beauty, unsurpassed durability and long lasting quality is well worth the expense in the long run.
Granite is a popular choice for solid tops requirements when planning for their kitchen renovation works and granite kitchen worktops come in various styles and colours. The shade of granite depends on which part of the world the granite originates from.
Kitchen granite worktops are ideal as a clean food preparation surface because it does not shield bacteria, and it is so easy to clean. Also, granite is stain resistant. A suitable combination of wood and granite kitchen worktops reduce the costs of using complete granite tops. Apart from adding stability, it is fantastic when it comes to complimenting either a contemporary or classic kitchen.
To maintain this great solid worktop, clean the surface just like any other counter surface with dish- washing liquid. So, if you are thinking of increasing the value of your home, give the kitchen a good thought and top it up with some eco-friendly solid worktops. Stone, wood or a combination of both.
