CFI - Epoxy Resin Laboratory Countertops
Epoxy resin laboratory countertops are extensively used in various laboratory environments for their exceptional chemical and heat resistance. These countertops, made from a thermoset polymer mixed with silica, undergo a curing and heating process that imparts superior physical and chemical resistance properties. Custom Fabricators Inc. offers a range of epoxy resin products including fume hood tops, balance tables, drainboards, shelving, and custom shapes. The material's properties can be customized to achieve specific characteristics, such as color and surface texture. All products are rigorously tested to SEFA standards to ensure adherence to industry norms. Epoxy resin countertops are particularly useful for workspaces requiring high resistance to caustic chemicals and flames, including K-12, university, medical, pharmaceutical, biological science, and industrial labs. Other applications include lab sinks, pegboards, and fume hood bases. Both drop-in and undermount sink options are available to meet various installation needs. CFI ensures that their products are certified for safe indoor air quality and compliant with SEFA standards, making them suitable for sensitive environments like food handling areas. Additionally, they offer Greenstone epoxy, an eco-friendly alternative that meets LEED credits and SCS requirements for post-consumer recycled content.Epoxy resin lab countertops have been an industry standard for decades. This top is an ideal work surface for applications in many labs due to its chemical and heat resistance.
Custom Fabricators can supply and install epoxy resin countertops. This includes fume hood tops, balance tables, drainboards, shelving or custom shapes.
Epoxy resin is a thermoset polymer known for its advanced corrosion and heat resistant properties. Solid surface tops are formulated from a mix of epoxy resin and silica. A curing and heating process permanently sets the material.
The end result is a solid slab that has superior physical and chemical resistance properties compared to other lab countertops.
It is possible to modify the properties of cured epoxy to achieve specific characteristics. Color is a popular addition in lab settings.
All CFI lab countertop products are tested to SEFA standards, including SEFA chemical and stain resistant testing used throughout the industry.
Epoxy resin is popular in laboratory workspaces and can be found in K-12, university, medical, pharmaceutical, biological science and industrial lab settings.
