About Green Countertops 

Today there are numerous environmental coutertops options. Because coutertops are the workhorse of the kitchen, durability and stain resistance are key considerations.

“The truth is that there is no such thing as a burnproof, scratchproof, stainproof countertop material—green or conventional—no matter what some manufacturers will claim,” says designer Lydia Corser of Eco Interiors in Santa Cruz, CA, in our recently published Green Home Reader Tips article. “The most important thing to realize is that nothing is foolproof.” Carefully choosing your material and adopting common-sense practices, however, will allow you to minimize burns, stains and cuts and have a beautiful, environmentally sound countertop that will be the envy of visitors.
