Trespa surfaces, resistant to strong acids, bases, solvents (other surfaces available, including Stainless Steel, Concrete/Granite, Veneer)
Super inert; great for solvents, strong acids and bases and microbiology (non-porous). Will break if you hit it with a hammer.
Great for solvents; strong acids and bases may rust surface. More resistant to mechanical damage (may need additional structure underneath)
Add mass and stability for balances or sensitive optical instruments; very porous. Should be a single piece for best mass stability
Chemical resistant materials available, but over time veneer will chip and water spills will swell and expand inner wood core.
