We spend quite a lot of time in the bathroom, from daily routine to relaxation rituals - so this room also deserves special attention when it comes to design and design.

Choosing a countertop is, maybe even more difficult than a kitchen counter. Choosing a bathroom countertop can be a real challenge!

Agricin recommends some indicators to keep in mind when choosing bathroom countertops.

style
What would you like your bathroom to look like?? There are several styles, from the traditional / country to the modern, or why not, Victorian style. When you want something different, we recommend the Mediterranean style, art deco or neoclassical. The key would be to study the styles very well beforehand, to choose the best option, and which, of course, it suits you best.

Daily activities
If you use hot styling tools, e.g, you need a high temperature resistant worktop.

Playful children
If there are children very often around, then you need a material that is resistant to bacteria and easy to clean.

Countertop maintenance

Testing of bathroom surfaces is different from those for the kitchen.
For the bathroom, we think of traces of lipstick or hair dye instead of food or coffee / wine stains., In the bathroom we can get rid of nail polish or acetone, chemicals, and these can leave consistent marks on the countertops.

Natural stone countertops are quite exposed to corrosive agents, therefore, acidic cleaning detergents are not recommended, but rather special maintenance kits or professional detergents.

Why natural stone countertops?

Remarkable both in beauty and endurance, through the upper level of finish, natural stone countertops prove to be a profitable investment, bringing long-term value to the arrangement.

✓Extremely long lifespan;
✓ give extra comfort and safety to the chosen space ;
✓the unique character flatters through the note of distinction and elegance offered to the interior spaces;
✓Easy to fit into any type of environment;
✓resistance to mechanical actions(strikes, clashes,scratch);
✓termorezistență; (natural stone maintains heat or coolness)
✓resistance to bacteria(Natural stone is not an environment conducive to the growth of bacteria, and with the help of special treatments the performances of the natural stone can be increased)
✓low degree of expansion and compression. (valid for quartz composite, granite and marble; this advantage of natural stones can be improved by a waterproofing process).

At Agricin, we always offer you spectacular solutions that we customize according to your preferences.

Most of them interior and exterior design projects are optimally implemented now, in the warm season, when building materials are processed much more Easy. One of the favorite materials for centuries to be integrated into interior spaces, natural stone, is chosen for both its appearance and the ease with which it is maintained, especially, for its great advantage, that that it takes over the ambient temperature and maintains it for a long time.

In line with the latest trends in architecture and design, more and more projects rely on the use of natural elements for environments, following the cohesion of the interior spaces with the exterior ones. And from this reason, natural stone is one of the most requested materials worldwide, and manufacturers align themselves with trends to create new collections or to invigorate certain materials through design and finishes atypical.

Through the collaborations we have with those largest international suppliers in the field of natural stone, we are able to offer the Romanian market the most modern and versatile materials, and with the help of the infrastructure and technology we have in AGRICIN factory , to create and deliver perfect finished products. In Agricin Stone Gallery we have over 10.000 sqm of quality raw material, including unique materials from all over the world, and in the Agricin Stone Library – are exposed over 1.200 of natural stone materials, semiprecious stone and other materials complexes with various finishes.

What is now in trend in the field of natural stone arrangements? The WOW effect!

The latest collection from Agricin stocks is WOW ballast collection – a special collection of top quality materials, produced by the world supplier Antolini Italia, with which we develop a long-term partnership, of over 18 years. The Wow collection is the result of Antolini's constant involvement in creating extraordinary materials, to permanently strengthen their position as innovative leaders in the natural stone industry. The quality of the materials is indisputable and represents, of course, the secret of exceptional products. The colors and veins of the stones in the WOW collection create a great visual impact, and the unique slabs also have fabulous names:

Amazonite - is a granite with colorful and exotic look: intense green games, white, Gray, beige, black, grouped in opaque areas, semi-opaque and translucent. The ballast itself can be considered a jewel of natural stones and can be used for creating uniquely exceptional products: decorative walls, fountains, tops, bathroom floors, receptions and many more… To be as good as possible highlighted, but also depending on the product to be made, granite Amazonite can support various finishes: glossy, mat, sandblasted etc.

Amazonite

Bronze Peace - It is a brown marble, with white - cream veins. Each slab has a unique look: the dark background of some slabs is furrowed with only a few fine light lines, others contain a whole network of intersecting veins, creating a marbled look. Amani bronze is one of the most requested materials in the world lately, being used for various destinations: tops, floors, steps, wall coverings, furniture items etc. It can be finished in several variants and it is very interesting to combine finishes for the same finished product – for eg. kitchen countertop with glossy finish + countertop with matte finish.

Explosion Blue – the colors of this quartz consist of a mix of gray - bluish, dark grey, pure white or beige, and some slabs may also contain slight traces of red or pale green. The way the layered colored curls are arranged and the direction of certain veins, induces the feeling that the slab was born from a real explosion of minerals and quartz crystals, metamorphosed into a unique picture. Explosion Blue is a hard material and can be used for floors, stair systems, ornamental walls, monuments or any other unique products.
