What is Hanex Made Of?

Hanex is composed of approximately:

• One-third Acrylic Resin (PMMA): This acts as the binder, giving the material its flexibility and allowing it to be joined seamlessly.

• Two-thirds Natural Minerals: Primarily Alumina Trihydrate (ATH), a derivative of bauxite. This provides the stone-like hardness and fire resistance.

• Pigments: High-grade dyes that create consistent color through the entire thickness of the slab

Standout Features

What makes Hanex unique compared to Sintered Stone or Quartz is its plasticity:

• Inconspicuous Seams: Unlike stone, which always has a visible line where two pieces meet, Hanex can be chemically "welded" together. Once sanded, the joint becomes completely invisible.

• Thermoformability: Hanex can be heated and bent into curves, waves, or 3D shapes. This makes it a favorite for curved reception desks or organic kitchen islands.

• Repairability: Because the color goes all the way through, scratches can be sanded out by a professional, and even deep chips can be "patched" with a piece of the same material to look brand new.

• Integrated Sinks: You can have a Hanex sink fused directly to a Hanex countertop, creating a single, continuous surface with no "lip" for dirt or mold to grow in.

Popular Applications

• Healthcare & Labs: Because it is non-porous and seamless, it is the gold standard for hospital surfaces where hygiene is critical.

• Commercial Design: Curved reception counters and backlit feature walls (some Hanex colors are translucent).

• Residential Kitchens: Ideal for homeowners who hate visible joints or want a "soft-touch" feel rather than the coldness of real stone.

• Bathrooms: Perfect for custom-molded shower pans and vanities.
