Types of Kitchen Benchtops by Brand: FENIX, Evostone, and ARPA

These are among the best brands in the game for kitchen benchtops for sale. All three focus on innovative, durability, sustainability, no silica content and visually pleasing materials; you can’t go wrong. All you need to do is work out your interior design and style preferences and unique functional needs for your kitchen, to see which one suits you best.

FENIX Benchtops: Cutting-Edge Materials and Italian Craftsmanship

The FENIX range of benchtops, designed by Arpa Industriale, is the epitome of beauty without sacrificing reliability. Their smart materials are known for their ultra-matte finish, durability and sustainability. Their advanced brands include FENIX NTM®, FENIX NTA®, and FENIX NTM® Bloom, each offering different benefits so you can see which one suits you best. Benefits of Each:

• FENIX NTM®: Ultra-matte finish, smart (responsive) material that resists fingerprints and scratch damage, to help keep your kitchen looking new and clean forever.
• FENIX NTM® Bloom: This is your eco-friendly option. It’s the same as FENIX NTM®, but substitutes phenols with lignin-based technology to significantly reduce the use of petroleum-based chemicals in production.
• FENIX NTA®: Metallic finish, giving it a more premium, commercial look and extra durability.

Comparison NTM (Nanao Tech Matt) vs NTA (Nano Tech Alloy):

NTM has a thermally cured acrylic resin surface, and its core is a high-pressure laminate. NTA has the same core but its surface is a metal foil layer, making it more durable.

NTM has a matte finish and is better for thermo healing, anti-fingerprint and scratch resistance, with its self healing properties. NTA has a metallic finish which makes it more durable, better for commercial use and able to take high impact.

All types of FENIX benchtops are engineered to thermo heal micro scratches, heat resistant and are easily maintained.

Very soft to touch texture, choice of ultra-matte or metallic finishes, and available in a wide spectrum of colours. Low-light reflectivity and anti-fingerprint technology that keeps them looking pristine at all times.

All types need little maintenance, due to their self-healing properties. Scratches can be removed with heat; the thermoplastic polymers reshape themselves to appear brand new again.

Suitable for both vertical and horizontal applications, the brand uses proprietary technologies to make you experience unique and aesthetic allowing complete design control of your kitchen.

Are looking for innovative and sustainable materials with low upkeep. For those who think long-term, who aren’t afraid to invest in high-quality to increase the value of their home and live comfortably in style.

Evostone Benchtops: Smooth, Solid, and Practical

While FENIX is for those looking for matte/metallic, sleek, scratch resistant benchtops, Evostone is for those looking for the feel and durability of natural stone. Evostone is perfect for those with a high-traffic kitchen, looking for modernity and resilience. The resin-based solid surface of Evostone effectively combines a smooth feel with tough durability.

• Material: This solid surface is made from natural minerals (like Quartz) and resins that bind it together. There is NO silica content.
• Durability: Evostone is designed to endure the daily demands expected from a solid surface bench top. 
• Aesthetic: Evostone provides a wide spectrum of neutral and contemporary shades. It has a very clean, minimalist appeal 
• Maintenance: Very low maintenance, waterproof and easy to clean; there’s no need for sealing, so it’s extremely practical in busy kitchens 

Are looking for low-maintenance, low cost and durability, in a sleek, modern and minimalist home. Complete the look by pairing your Evostone benchtop with contemporary kitchen cabinet handles or a sleek black kitchen sink for a balanced and elegant finish.

ARPA High-Pressure Decorative Laminates: Versatile and Stylish

While FENIX offers you matte and metallic luxury solutions, and Evostone gives you tough durability and a natural stone look and feel, ARPA High-Pressure Decorative Laminates(HPL) is the versatile, high-quality, tactile option. ARPA benchtops mimic the look of natural materials, minus their sensitivity, at a cost-effective price tag.

• Material: High-pressure laminate, very good for busy kitchens 
• Durability: Scratch- and impact-resistant, but not as much as FENIX and Evostone.
• Aesthetic: Offers a broad range of finishes and textures such as wood, stone and abstract. And the most customisable option of the three. 
• Maintenance: Simple clean and maintenance, no sealing or special treatment needed. 

Want a high-quality, versatile benchtop but don’t want to splash out on a single element for their kitchen. This is perfect for style and low maintenance.

How to Choose the Right Kitchen Benchtop for Your Home

Choosing the right benchtop for your kitchen is more than just thinking about price or material. Don’t let your budget limit you; keep in mind the kitchen is the most-used room in any house. Think about the long term use and how you want your kitchen and home to perform for you, your family and your guests. What matches your family’s needs? What do your lifestyles look like? What do you think looks the best?

Here are a few factors to consider to ensure you find the perfect match for your kitchen’s style, function, and your personal preferences:

If you cook often or have young children, durability and low maintenance are key. All of our supplied brands offer excellent scratch resistance, and easy to clean surfaces suited for everyday wear and tear, especially FENIX and Evostone.

If you want luxurious metallic or matte finishes, FENIX is the way to go. If you want natural stone luxury and depth, Evostone is your pick. If you want to choose from a broad range of options at a cost-effective price, ARPA is for you. Don’t hesitate to use your bench top as a defining design element; make a bold statement. Explore the range and see what feels and looks best for you.

If sustainability is your priority, FENIX NTM® Bloom is by far the best choice for you. The three brands we provide are all sustainably made, but this type by far wins in terms of low environmental impact.

Your benchtop is a defining element of your kitchen; like it or not. Not every aspect of your kitchen needs to be the most expensive, but if you are going to make a priority list of budget, your cabinetry and benchtop are the most critical.
