Glass is giving your buffet counter an elegant look with a special gloss and it can be cleaned easily. Gastros’ recommendation is to use scratch-resistant ESG glass. The material can be coloured in almost any RAL-colour. Logos can be added also. Gastros would be glad to assist you with your choice and provides a list of glass specifications.
