Solid Surface Composition:
Tristone is an acrylic solid surface made from natural minerals, high-performance acrylic resins, and pigments. This mineral-based composition creates a non-porous, hygienic, and durable material that is resistant to moisture and bacteria. Its ability to be thermoformed and joined seamlessly allows for limitless design possibilities, making it suitable for a wide range of applications, including countertops, sinks, wall cladding and more.
Composition
70% natural minerals for strength and stone-like appearance.
~30% high-performance acrylic resins for flexibility and resilience.
Engineered to be non-porous, hygienic, repairable, and seamless when fabricated.
Material Comparison:
Compared to Natural Stone (Granite & Marble)
Stone is porous and needs chemical sealing; Tristone requires no sealing.
Granite/marble can stain or chip permanently; Tristone can be refinished to look new.
Tristone is lighter and easier to fabricate than heavy natural stone.
Compared to Quartz (Engineered Stone)
Quartz is durable but seams are always visible; Tristone can achieve seamless joins.
Quartz is heavier and cannot be thermoformed; Tristone can be shaped into curves and integrated sinks.
Tristone is typically more affordable while offering similar visual appeal.
Compared to Laminates
Laminate is cheaper but easily damaged and not repairable.
Water and heat can compromise laminate cores; Tristone resists moisture and heat better.
Tristone offers far superior longevity and hygiene benefits.
Pricing:
Cost Advantage - Tristone is priced at 40% less than other popular solid surface brands - offering the same value without sacrificing quality or performance.
Mid-Range Affordability - Tristone delivers cost-efficiency similar to or better than mid-range stone alternatives like granite and quartz. It typically falls into a moderate price bracket, with material costs comparable to engineered options and significantly lower than premium natural stone installations.
Long-Term Savings - Its durability and ability to be resurfaced means fewer replacements over time, translating into real long-term cost savings
