Surface Innovation: Redefining Boundaries of Interior and Exterior Spaces with Ultracompact Surfacing

Surface Innovation: Redefining Boundaries of Interior and Exterior Spaces with Ultracompact Surfacing

Ultracompact surfaces represent the future in building materials when it comes to countertops, flooring, exterior wall cladding, outdoor kitchens and all of the applications in between. This course will help you become an expert on the production, application and innovative qualities related to Ultracompact Surfacing.

Learning Objectives: 
  1. Define ultracompact surfacing and the innovative production process that creates intrinsically unique properties and discuss designing with ultracompact surfaces in terms color, texture, and format
  2. Identify possible interior/exterior application options with ultracompact surfacing material
  3. Discuss the evolution of surfaces and the various types of surfacing material for interior and exterior applications
  4. Discuss the advantages of compact surfaces in terms of strength, durability, chemical resistance, absorption, abrasion resistance, and ASTM testing
