urban slabs - kitchen installation“Green” Countertops that Make a Big Impact

URBANSLABS™ is one of the few interior design products that fabricates like granite, is lighter in weight AND has a beautifully unique appearance. As an alternative to concrete countertops and other manufactured stone products, URBANSLABS™ is extremely versatile and hand crafted from start to finish in Southern California.

URBANSLABS™ is revolutionary on two other fronts: it’s transforming interior and exterior design, taking it to a place it's never gone–while at the same time showing how easy it is to be environmentally conscious. With its unique look, URBANSLABS™ recycled glass countertops are totally new to the marketplace, providing inspiration for designers everywhere who want to create stunning new spaces that captivate the senses. Appealing to the artistic eye, URBANSLABS™ can be highly customized to create decorative accents, patterns or emblems, in any color.

URBANSLABS™ is a very economical choice compared to pour in place and pre-cast concrete countertops, which cost $175 per square foot or more installed. Clearly URBANSLABS™ is the sensible “green” countertops choice for consumers and businesses alike.

URBANSLABS™ Sustainable, Cement-based Recycled Glass Countertops

As one of the newest and most beautiful surfaces being used for “green” countertops and other applications, URBANSLABS™ is the smart alternative to heavier–and more difficult to fabricate–concrete countertops. URBANSLABS™ may be used in both residential and commercial applications and can be left natural, honed or polished–unlike granite which has a shiny (polished) surface
