The waste materials are mixed in a unique compound suitable for press moulding — a method designed to reuse companies’ resources more efficiently.

Warranty & Care

Two-year warranty.  

Matek® is easy to clean and re­quires very little maintenance. For daily care, dust the surface with a soft cloth. The surface can be cleaned with a soft cloth wrung in a mild solution of lukewarm water and a universal cleaning detergent.   

Avoid use of abrasive cleaning agents and aggressive cleaning detergents as this might damage the surface. Avoid placing furniture in direct sunlight, or excessive heat or humidity. For tabletops, use trivets under hot objects, such as coffee pots and cups, to prevent damage to the surface.
