Trezzini Solid Surface Veneer meets
or exceeds the requirements of the International Cast Polymer Association Standard
ICPA-SS-1-1997: Performance Standards for Solid Surfce Materials. There are however,
no other Australian or International Standards applicable to solid surface materials.
When tested to other relevant Australian and International standards though, the
following results were obtained:
