Solid Surface vs. Acrylic Bathtubs
2025-02-24
Choosing the right bathtub is a crucial decision for any bathroom renovation or new build. The material defines not only the look and feel but also the longevity and maintenance of your centerpiece. Two popular choices dominate the market: acrylic and solid surface.
-
Acrylic Bathtubs: These are made from vacuum-formed sheets of acrylic, often backed with fiberglass layers for reinforcement. They are lightweight and cost-effective but have inherent limitations in strength and heat retention.
-
Solid Surface Bathtubs (Our Specialty at FLHO): Crafted from a blend of natural minerals (like alumina trihydrate) and high-performance acrylic resins, molded under high pressure and temperature. The result is a non-porous, homogeneous material that is incredibly durable and offers unparalleled design flexibility.

-

-
