While actively trying to get a grip on worktops, we have stumbled into a
product called "Luxor" I think it's spelt.

Up untill the weekend we only thought there was granite,corian, wood or
laminate.

It's pulverised and re-constituted stony stuff nearly as hard as granite
less permeable and available in a greater range of colourings.

We saw in in John Lewis and Magnet, but can't find it on 't'interweb.

Can anyone enlighten me some more as to where I might find details on
line or even if I am miss-spelling it.

Cheers
Pete

Thanks Tony.
Seems like the same stuff, but it looks like it's a stick-on-top product
rather than a complete replacement worktop.

I'll keep looking.

Sounds like the material used to make Schock sinks (also available from
John Lewis). Unfortunately, www.schock.co.uk is not very helpful - but try
http://www.schock.de/index.php?newla...&seite=8&sub=0 - hopefully
that gives the English version.

All the information about their "New and Internationally Exclusive:
CRISTALITE® Star-granite Worksurfaces" seems to be in
http://www.schock.de/files/pdf/19.pdf


Disclaimer: I have no connection with Schock, have never used any of their
products and this might not be what you want!

Looks like the stuff, but as with the previous link
(granite-transformations) it seems to be a top layer that is bonded to
existing worktop. So I guess it's back to our original choices of materal.

Thanks for the links though.
