4-0) Basic info
Verde Lapponia benchtops are cut from the green Quartzite slabs – the expensive quarry stone blocks. Most people will use 2cm laminate or 3cm thick slabs for Verde Lapponia kitchen bench and island tops, as 3cm looks solid and sturdier, but 2cm is more cost effective, which is mostly used as bathroom benchtops, dining table tops, bar tops or cabinet tops.
