Applications and Uses for Solid Surfaces
Kitchens, Utilities, Bathrooms & Bedrooms
Solid surface brings a unique flair to any kitchen or bathroom, letting you create flowing curves, statement islands and bespoke products with a colour range to suit every taste.
The seamless integration of solid sinks and drainers, pop up sockets and LED lighting and many other features convey a real sense of truly bespoke manufacturing highlighting outstanding craftsmanship that only experienced fabricators can provide.
Offering incredible versatility for that seamless look*, the replacement of traditional materials like Tiles, Grouts and Sealants with Solid Surface Material that is both non-porous and anti-microbial help to add an extra layer of safety and beauty to any kitchen design. Bespoke cabinets with drawers or doors clad in Solid Surface material help to create another opportunity for clean lines, innovative design and a uniqueness like only Solid Surfaces can offer
With the material being easy to clean and 100% waterproof, alongside food safe certification and Anti-Microbial protection, we can combine beauty and practicality like no other material can. Head on over to our ‘About Us‘ page to see the heritage and ethos of VH Surfaces and Vanity Hall.

Retail Stores & Outlets
More and more companies are turning to Solid Surface Fabricators to realise the design of their latest retail site, and VH Surfaces has become one of the most prolific in recent years due to our attention to detail, dedication and hard-work by the whole team.
High-traffic areas like sales counters, cosmetics counters, jewellery displays and everything in-between can be made stunning with Solid Surface. With it’s anti-microbial and stain resistance properties, we are able to help design and build the perfect retail environment for Store-staff and customers alike.
With the ever-increasing amount of customers coming in through their doors and the heightened awareness of bacteria and viruses since the arrival of Coronavirus and the post-lockdown era, having a truly Anti-Microbial surface that is completely non-propagatory when it comes to bacterial-growth is a highly-requested component of Store Design and Installation.
Vanity Hall ensures total-cooperation with designers and architects that requests aspects like this in their designs and have extensive experience within that scope of works. We are continually providing Solid Surface Trough-Style basins for use in these environment’s WC facilities and always ensure the design is both led by the Architect but also stays within our remit of safe design and fabrication.
We have been involved in many high-street projects ranging from Grocery-shopping to Luxury-Cosmetics, and from Restaurants to Nightclubs, each one receiving the same VH Surfaces treatment ensuring the best results and the best products from the finest fabricators.
Hospitality & Leisure
Solid Surface allows the creation of truly unique design that allows the guest the chance to relax fully and give staff the ability to worry less about sanitary conditions and boring design, whilst increasing client interest and staisfaction
In recent times all over the globe, hotel guests are expecting more luxury and great-design from their time in hotels, and Solid Surface Fabricators like VH Surfaces from the Vanity Hall Group are always happy to help provide a solution that looks amazing, is easy to maintain even in higher numbers, and can be easily and quickly built to custom sizes to allow a floor-by-floor redevelopment with the minimum of fuss and mess and most-importantly, out-of-service rooms. The use of Solid Surface materials means seam-free, anti-microbial designer solutions that can be used and used with failure of joints like those common with Laminates, Quartzes and Porcelain being completely eradicated; if there is a splashback in Quartz, Stone or Porcelain for example, these areas are dust-traps and have the ability to propagate bacteria – a coved upstands in Solid Surface material removes this and therefore allow a cleaner, kinder surface. And with recent chatter in the industry about the use of products that have a Silica content being prohibited, Solid Surface meets that head-on and carries on as normal as these materials contain no Silica whatsoever.
Within the Leisure sector, Solid Surface can provide a sanitary, worry-free solution to practically any situation, yet still maintaining that level of cutting-edge design. We have provided many Restaurants and Hospitality Suites with serving counters, meeting tables, Banqueting Counters plus much more. All of those projects and products had the same thing in common – VH Surfaces own brand of Design flair and a team of professional, dedicated fabricators and installers, with a support team unrivalled in their ability to provide results as and when needed before, during and after installation.
Healthcare, Dental & Aesthetics
Solid Surface allows designers to provide alternative approaches to design, allowing for more organic shapes, more interesting solutions and a worry-free surface that lasts for years
The use of Solid Surface has genuinely revolutionised the way that Architects and Designers look at what are historically bland and boring areas. With the integration of features like Coved Upstands & Integrated Bowls, this incredibly versatile material now offers interesting shapes through the thermoforming process (example video here) and insetting of designs to add more depth like contrasting inlays (example video here).
With companies like aesthetics clinics and dentists, a-septic surfaces are an absolute essential thanks to its 100% non-porosity and non-propagative properties when considering areas that need to be fully-clean with no chance of microbe or bacteria collecting in places like right-angle joints where worktops meet upstands; Solid Surface allows the creation of a single sweeping curve to dramatically increase the cleanliness of that area.
More and more clients are choosing Solid Surface for these very reasons and at VH Surfaces we actively encourage the use of this material to add longevity to the installed surfaces.
