Kitchen worktops in Engineered Stone at Salone del Mobile

Last Friday, April 20,  I visited  Eurocucina 2012 inside Salone del Mobile, halls 9-11 and 13-15 at the Milan Fairgrounds, ranging over 27,000 square metres of exhibition space, with over 150 exhibitors, where design  is bound with technology in so many different styles and fantasies in their eyecatching and original stand displays.

There were so many stands that I was unable to see all  the ones I wanted to !

This year (Eurocucina is biennial)  I noticed a higher presence of worktops in Engineered Stone. 
Each stand exihibited al least one, towards stainless worktops which are decreasing compared to the previous edition and  wooden worktops that are nearly disappeared.  

Most of the worktops are not polished and have ”machined” surfaces, nice to touch and with neutral colours.

I ‘ve got to congratulate with our major customers manufacturing Engineered Stone  for their really wonderful products.

Here you can see a photo-gallery of Engineered Stone kitchen worktops.

Some of these are manufactured using our machines: Contourbreton QUARTZ, Contourbreton NC260K, Contourbreton DUAL e Contourbreton NC600.
