HTM 63 Specification 

It is a necessity in healthcare environments that health and cleanliness cannot be compromised. HTM 63 compliance is vital in any healthcare environment when it comes to solid surfaces. There are many crucial aspects of HTM 63 specification which must be adhered to, and our solid 25mm worktops are subject to rigorous testing to ensure they meet stringent healthcare standards and requirements.

Non-Porous and Sterile 

Velstone surfaces are non-porous, offering a sterile environment free from harmful bacteria and pathogens. This makes them ideal for healthcare settings where hygiene is paramount. These surfaces prevent the accumulation of dirt and dust that can harbour bacteria and lead to contamination.

Seamless Joints

Our healthcare solid surfaces are designed to be seamless, making joints almost invisible. This is crucial in healthcare environments where even the smallest gap or crevice can become a breeding ground for bacteria. Seamless surfaces are easier to clean and sterilise, thus contributing to the overall hygiene of the workspace.

The surfaces require minimal maintenance and are easily cleaned with recommended products. Moreover, Velstone surfaces are designed for durability and can withstand scratches, heat, and daily wear and tear without compromising their quality or appearance.

Helpful Answers To Most Common Questions

Can't find the answer to your question? Then contact us.

What makes your healthcare solid surfaces different from others?

Our healthcare solid surfaces offer non-porous material, seamless joints, and are highly stain-resistant and repairable, making them superior in maintaining hygiene and perfect for all healthcare environments, including dental practices. Seamlessly jointed surfaces also offer a smooth finish which is not only high in practicality but also visually appealing for improving both patient and staff experience.

Can Velstone solid surfaces be repaired on-site?

Yes, most 25mm Velstone surfaces can be repaired on-site. In cases where damage does occur, we provide affordable repair kits that make it easy to restore surfaces to their original condition, ensuring continuous use without the need for costly replacements.

What makes your solid surfaces perfect for HTM 63 specification?

Typically, a standard laminate worktop with a square edge banded laminate strip will show a joint, due to the limitations in manufacture. Our solid surface material does not have such limitations, so the joint is seamless. Our surfaces also offer greater heat and moisture resistance with enhanced durability.

How do your 25mm worktops meet the HTM 63 standard?

Conventional solid surface worktops comprise a 1 12mm-13mm thick sheet bonded onto an MDF substrate. Our 25mm worktop is homogenous and requires no support. Its single content means it meets the criteria of the HTM 63 standard without the need for an additional substrate and it can cost-effectively be machined to the HTM specification.
