First class surfaces for student halls M
in all 78 flats.
Auxillium Property Solutions Ltd managed the project and selected the Diamond White Sparkle worktop for all kitchen and breakfast bars in the halls due to its durability and stylish finish.
Dale Cross, managing director of Auxillium Property Solutions Ltd, commented: “Max-Top Quartz offered a solution that was easy to install, aesthetically pleasing and above all, more durable than standard laminate worktops - a factor that is extremely important for student accommodation. “It is important to consider the full life cost of any product we recommend, and the quality of Max-Top Quartz surfaces will mean that replacing the worktops every three to four years will be a thing of the past.” Stephen Moss, managing director of Max-Top, commented: “Our modular quartz surfaces have been a real success in residential environments where strength and durability is paramount. This is particularly relevant for student accommodation and we are currently working on a number of projects in this sector. As our products are lightweight, installation takes no time at all and this can be extremely helpful when planning a large-scale project of this kind.”
