The importance of lightness and water absorption behaviour for kitchen top supports.
In October 2016 in Pordenone it has been held the EXPOSICAM, the international exhibition for components, semifinished products and accessories for the furniture industry.
AIRPAN has shown the advantages of some of its kitchen top supports.
In fact the finishing materials, as fully vitrified porcelain tiles or natural stones and granites, are nowadays thiner and thiner, and consequently need solid and thick back supports.
AIRPAN products presented have the advantages of being light and with a good behaviour with reference to water absorption.
Important points in comparison, for example, to chipboards based supports.
