Edge Profiles
The Dupont edge is a specific style of countertop edge profile that is commonly used in the kitchen and bathroom industry. The Dupont edge is characterized by a slightly curved edge that is beveled on both the top and bottom of the edge, creating a gentle slope on each side of the countertop. This edge profile is designed to be both elegant and durable, with a smooth finish that is easy to clean and maintain.
The Dupont edge is often used with granite, marble, quartz, and other natural stone countertops, but it can also be used with other materials such as steel and solid surface countertops. It is a popular choice for homeowners who want to add a touch of sophistication to their kitchen or bathroom countertops.
The Marine edge is typically used in areas where spills and moisture are common, such as in commercial kitchens or in bathrooms. It provides an added layer of protection against water damage and makes it easier to clean up spills without worrying about them seeping into the countertop or onto the floor.
The raised lip of the Marine edge is usually around 1/2 inch in height and is angled downwards towards the countertop surface. This allows water and other liquids to be directed towards the sink or other drainage areas, rather than flowing off the countertop and onto the floor.
The Marine edge is a popular choice for both residential and commercial countertops due to its functional and practical design, as well as its aesthetic appeal.
The square edge is a popular choice for countertops, as it showcases the natural beauty of the stone and adds a sleek and contemporary touch to the overall design. One of the main benefits of the square edge is its simplicity, as it allows the material of the countertop to take center stage. It also provides a smooth and even surface for preparing food, making it a popular choice for chefs and home cooks.
The “V” edge is a specific style of countertop edge that is often used to add a decorative touch to kitchen and bathroom countertops. This edge style features a sharp, angled “V” shape along the top and bottom edges of the countertop, creating a unique and visually striking look.
The “V” edge showcases the natural beauty of the material and adds a touch of elegance to the overall design. Like the Marine edge, the “V” edge is also great at preventing liquids from spilling off of the countertop. One of the main benefits of this edge profile is its ability to add a decorative element to an otherwise simple and functional surface. It can be used to create a focal point in the kitchen or bathroom, drawing the eye to the countertop and adding visual interest to the space.
