Our custom fabricated countertop surfaces are treated with an antimicrobial agent throughout the body of the material and on the surface that significantly inhibits bacteria growth 24/7 and remains cleaner longer than untreated surfaces. While this treatment is not a substitute for routine cleaning, it may provide additional protection to keep surfaces safe for all users. Our colour options, including those in our Economy Collection, are treated with an antimicrobial agent.

Ultracera is a patent-pending surface product sold by MGroup. This countertop material is created using a unique blend of synthetic ceramic and decorative aggregates that provides a high-performance surface while maintaining the look and feel of materials well-known in the countertop market.

Ultracera is as heavy, durable and aesthetically pleasing as existing solid surface products without relying on quartz aggregates, which naturally vary in characteristics and are environmentally damaging to produce. Ultracera has a water absorption rate of 0.03%, which is nearly impermeable and prevents liquids and pathogens from penetrating the surface. This provides an extremely sanitary surface that is easy to clean and maintain.

In comparison to other products, Ultracera outperforms and exceeds the competition. It is more impermeable than granite, natural and ‘glass’ stone.

Ultracera is certified by the National Health and Safety Foundation (NSF). An NSF-51 certification ensures the products we provide meet strict standards for public health protection imposed by the NSF.

Ultracera is thoroughly evaluated with extensive product testing and material analysis before it can earn the NSF certification. Ultracera also carries a UL Greenguard Gold certification for compliance with indoor air pollution standards.

Our tops are routinely tested to ensure they withstand the effects of harsh cleaning chemicals per ASTM C650 using accredited laboratories. All Ultracera surfaces show no effects after repeated exposure to chemicals such as bleach, Lysol, and even acids and harsh hydroxides.

Ultracera is also certified to be free of any cobalt, which is frequently used by low-price countertop slab producers to expedite the curing of the material during production. This dangerous practice puts fabricators, installers and possibly end-users at risk of exposure to harmful cobalt chemicals. Ultracera production does NOT rely on these dangerous and irresponsible shortcuts in production.

Ultracera tops exceed the competition from cleanliness to cost. Your guests can rest assured they are in the most sanitary environment possible and at a competitive price. For more information on Ultracera, please reach out to your local sales representative or visit ultraceratops.com.
