Formica counter tops tend to be instantly associated with the laminates so popular in many homes. The reality is the company behind these counter tops is responsible for a whole lot more than plastic designs. When it comes to plastic, laminate designs, however, Formica is the leading name. It's so popular, the company's name is synonymous with laminates in fact.
The Formica Corporation is an international company that has more than a century of experience in working with and designing solid surfaces for home and industrial use. While it's best known for creating Formica counter tops, which are popular plastic laminates, the company is also known for its expertise in other counter top materials, as well.
The company behind Formica has been perfecting its craft for more than 100 years, with its craftsman becoming well known in the kitchen and industrial trade for their designs. While Formica counter tops perhaps gave the company its name, but it is also known for:
Metal: The Formica Corporation also specializes in making different metal solid surfaces. Its countertops in these materials range from laminates of metal to solid metal countertops and work surfaces. These are considered ideal for commercial and residential use.
Stone: While Formica counter tops are perhaps better recognized, the company that makes them also specializes in stone work. In particular, the company deals in quartz countertops that are spectacular to behold. These designs are typically custom made and come in a number of different colors and styles.
Laminates: The Formica counter tops the Formica company is known for all into this class. These are plastic formed counter tops that are built up over a base surface, such as wood. These counters are considered some of the most popular and affordable on the market today. The laminates produced by the Formica company are not the countertops your grandparents used. These designs are now quite elaborate and can be very beautiful to behold.
Veneer: Wood veneers for counters and more are also handled by the makers of Formica counter tops. These are designed in a similar process to regular laminate countertops, but the difference is the use of wood in the mix.
Solid surfaces: The Formica Corporation has also made a name for itself on the single sheet countertop market. Offering molded, solid surfaces in plastics, these designs are similar to other countertops on the market today that are known for their lack of visible seams and solid pour creation.
While the Formica Corporation made a name for itself on the laminates market, the reality is this company creates much more than plastics. In addition, it is a leading provider of stone, metal and wood surface countertops and other solid surfaces.
Formica counter tops are chosen in many homes for a number of reasons. The laminates themselves are well known for their beauty and affordability. The other products created by the company are backed by a corporation that has years in the industry and a track record for creating quality products that stand the test of time.
