With the arrival of a new year, most households would consider reshuffling their interiors or giving them a new coat of paint while going room-to-room to clear out the old so they can bring in the new.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

There\u2019s only two main reasons to why anyone would consider renovating their living space \u2013 it is either to enhance their quality of life, or to prepare for the welcoming of new family members.<\/p>

Using advanced technology, surfacing materials nowadays can come in all types and colours to help you achieve interiors that are long-lasting, practical, and most importantly, beautiful, and here are 7 reasons why our KompacPanels are a great surfacing material for you to consider as kitchen counters, vanity tops, dining tables and more.<\/p>

#1: KOMPACPANELS OFFER SLEEK AND SEAMLESS AESTHETICS WITH A SIGNATURE COMPACT THICKNESS OF ONLY 6 MM.<\/strong><\/p>

Contrary to common belief, you do not need blocks of natural wood or stone measuring few inches thick to guarantee durability as a surface for long-lasting use.<\/p>

As modern trends go, we are constantly looking for ways to maximise every precious square feet of our living space, and with the slim build of KompacPanels, they offer a 2-in-1 experience where you can bring home practical surfaces with sleek aesthetics to boot.<\/p>

This can be especially useful in homes where space is limited, and you need practical surfaces that do not eat into either vertical or horizontal space.<\/p>

In kitchens and bathrooms, they can serve as counter or vanity tops that allow more room for storage as overhead or bottom cabinets. As KompacWalls, they can also easily give rooms an entire makeover without taking much of the existing space.<\/p>

Where two or more panels are joined, we also provide KompacSeal<\/a> \u2013 our colour-matching adhesive and sealant that can enhance the seamless experience by covering up the less than 1 mm wide joining line.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

#2: KOMPACPANELS ARE HIGH WATER-RESISTANT.<\/strong><\/p>

A combination of multiple layers of kraft paper soaked with resins, KompacPanels are compressed to solid form under high heat and pressure \u2013 resulting in a strong black panel core that is airtight and non-porous.<\/p>

Because they are not afraid of water. this makes them a great alternative to natural wood or stone in high water use areas as sink tops or backers to catch stray droplets and splashbacks.<\/p>

If you do not prefer fully tiled bathroom or kitchen walls, do consider KompacWalls to help prevent unsightly stains or possible damage on bare walls.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

#3: KOMPACPANELS HAVE STRONG RESISTANCE AGAINST LONG-TERM WEAR AND TEAR.<\/strong><\/p>

Underneath their beautiful colours and textured finishings, KompacPanels are built for heavy use and are tested and proven to have strong resistance to scratches, cracks, stain, and heat. Even when left as a cooktop with burner stoves turned on high heat for three continuous hours, the surfaces will not burn or crack.<\/p>

To prove its resistance to impact, we do provide impact resistance tests upon request to provide interested customers a practical experience on how tough the panel is for themselves.<\/p>

As part of our efforts to guarantee our panel quality, every KompacTop, KompacWall and custom productions comes with a 10-year integrity warranty<\/a> that offers a one-to-one replacement in case of manufacturing defects.<\/p>

For a practical experience on how tough the panels are for yourselves, impact resistance tests (as shown in the video below) can be arranged upon request with our sales representatives at our showroom here<\/a>.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
