SURFACE INNOVATION - REDEFINING BOUNDARIES OF INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR SPACES WITH ULTRACOMPACT SURFACING
In this corse, we explore a cutting edge surfacing technology, ultracompact surfacing. Gain insight into how this surfacing material possesses the same characteristics of natural stone while providing unmatched color and design flexibility.
Course Description:
Learning Objectives:
1. Discuss the evolution of surfaces and the various types of surfacing material for interior and exterior applications.
2. Define ultracompact surfacing and the innovative production process that creates intrinsically unique properties.
3. Discuss designing with ultracompact surfaces in terms color, texture, and format.
4. Discuss the advantages of compact surfaces in terms of strength, durability, chemical resistance, absorption, abrasion resistance, and ASTM testing.
5. Identify possible interior/exterior application options with ultracompact surfacing materials.
