Solid Surface Solutions for Commercial Spaces: Performance, Hygiene, and Design Flexibility

by | May 1, 2025 | Blog, Maintenance | 0 comments

In commercial environments, surfaces need to work harder. Whether in healthcare, education, hospitality, or high-traffic public restrooms, materials must be durable, hygienic, and low maintenance—all without sacrificing design. That’s where solid surface stands out.

At GW Surfaces, we specialize in custom solid surface solutions designed to meet the demands of commercial projects of all sizes. Through our ShowerShapes® division, we offer even more targeted surface innovations for restrooms and wet environments. Here’s why solid surface continues to be the material of choice for commercial professionals.

Why Solid Surface Works for Commercial Projects

Non-Porous and Hygienic

Solid surface materials are non-porous, which means they do not absorb moisture, bacteria, or stains. In high-use areas like restrooms, break rooms, or exam rooms, this is a major advantage for maintaining hygiene and ensuring easy cleaning.

Durable and Low Maintenance

Unlike tile or laminate, solid surface resists scratching, chipping, and impact. It’s easy to repair and can be refinished on-site, reducing the need for replacement and extending the life of your investment.

Seamless Custom Fabrication

One of the biggest advantages of solid surface is the ability to create seamless installations—eliminating joints and grout lines that collect dirt and bacteria. With in-house CNC machining and expert fabrication, we produce made-to-fit surfaces that meet your specific layout and design needs.

Trusted Solid Surface Brands

We work with leading manufacturers such as Corian®, LG Hi-MACS®, Staron®, Formica®, and Avonite—giving our clients access to high-quality materials that are proven in the commercial space.
