countertop revolution.
| There’s
hardly doubt about it - leading the charge in the concrete
revolution is the countertop. Our records show more
people typing in concrete countertops into the search
engines than granite or Corian countertops. Concrete
Expressions Magazine leads the way in covering
the “concrete countertop revolution.” Find
the ideas, the how-to, where to get trained, where
to find mixes, and much more…. |

Concrete’s
irresistible appeal as a countertop material can be
attributed to four things: its versatility, its look
of distinction, its natural qualities, and the display
of superior craftsmanship.
“People want to have something they can show off, not something
that mimics what their friends or neighbors have,” said
Terry Stogner of Concrete Interiors in Alamo, California. |

More
companies are offering mixes for precasting concrete
countertops, as well as pouring concrete countertops
in place. There are new concrete countertop admixtures
and polishing equipment. Innovation is an every day
occurrence in this burgeoning market.

The
concrete countertop trend gained steam on the West Coast-
but its
reach is quickly spreading across the country. In fact,
Bill Guthro, of Distinctive Concrete of New England, based
in Massachusetts, created 11 countertops that embellish
the prestigious Boston Design Center, a grand 12-story
complex that caters to
the design industry. “Concrete countertops are hot out here,” notes
Guthro.
