Me too. the whole bench and breakfast bar was premade off site and brought into the house before the walls were closed in. It is called Corian. It has no joints, upstands and folded edges with no joints. It is way better than marble. My colour is a soft green with a soft white fleck.

There have been several tower building fires where the flames went up the outside of the buildings. The aluminium casing over the polystyrene insulation was a design fault and now banned. Silica does the job of both ie the structural cladding and insulation factors and it does not burn. A lot of existing buildings are been forced to use it to comply with fire safety.
