The construction of sustainable and healthy buildings benefits clients, employees, collaborators, and the community. K-LIFE is a building product that can be a part of any sustainable construction project; it provides healthy and safe spaces due to the low emissions of VOCs and the absence of dangerous products in its composition.

SolutionKRION® is a new generation solid surface that is pleasant and warm to the touch – similar to stone. Made of ⅔ natural minerals and a low percentage of high strength resins, it is a non-toxic material that has a very low number of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). It has achieved the best results in accreditations such as GREENGUARD and A+, and has certifications such as REACH, BISFENOL FREE, and SIO2 FREE.

KRION is manufactured to very strict quality standards to reduce energy consumption and ensure minimal impact on the environment. Once its life cycle is completed, the mineral can be reused, recycled or discarded without posing any danger to the environment.
