 Our Table/Counter Tops are made up of two sheets of polycarbonate.
The two sheets are combined and sealed with rigid polycarbonate becoming
a single piece. Polycarbonate is a plastic material that perfectly withstands
shock or impact when applied at room temperature. (Shocks
or impacts at colder temperatures may cause damage.) Each
tile is tested individually by overloading half of the surface
with a load distributed which amount to 500 kg per square
meter.
Please follow the instructions below for installation and
storage specifications.
We offer three (3) different top surfaces and (3) different
styles in our Table/Counter Tops. (Click here
to see images.)
Standard colors
are available as well as custom colors if required. It is
normal to see small air bubbles within the tiles – this
is normal and one should not be concerned if this occurs.
In fact, this adds to the playfulness of the product for patrons.

Installation Instructions
The table tops arrive to you pre-drilled to accept xmm hardware.
You can simply lay the table top on the ground (on a protective
blanket so you do not scratch the surface) and attach the
base to the back of the table top.
DO NOT TRY TO BEND OR FOLD THE TILES IN ANY WAY. Tiles should
not be cut in the field - this will cause failure of the
tiles.
 Storage
Attention should be paid to the environmental conditions which
occur during installation and/or storage. Storage should also
involve superimposing the tiles two by two to avoid bending
of the tiles.
The tiles MUST be kept in a horizontal position during storage.
When the tiles are not installed permanently, the perimeter
of the tiles are sensitive to impact blows. Move and handle
with care.
The Living Surface™ Liquid Lava™ tiles resist
temperatures up to 140º F (60º C), however the best results
are obtained at room temperatures between 50º F (10º C) and
104ºF (40º C). The tiles react normally at lower temperatures
as well but are more sensible to damage and colder temperatures.
 Maintenance
To obtain best results, periodically use an auto polishing
metallic wax. This should be applied ONLY with a mop directly
to the surface. (The tiles can be cleaned as well using common
detergents found within the home as well.) Do NOT use automatic
cleaning machinery and polishing wheels on the tiles. The
rate of which the tiles should be cleaned depends on the amount
of traffic that may occur for each installation.
Do not use solvent wax and always avoid PVC solvents and acetones.
Care should be taken when the tiles butt against carpet or
other flooring products which automatic cleaning machinery
is used to clean. These machines can cause SERIOUS damage
to the tiles and caution should be used in these installations.
Place protective pads under furniture and chair legs to protect
the tile surface. Use of cart or furniture wheels on the floor
tiles should be avoided when possible.
