Strange question about shower material at OKW-hope you can help

[Stitches12]

Hi all --

This is a pretty strange question --

We recently stayed at OKW and noticed the shower surround material in the bathroom. We are upgrading our master bathroom and really liked this material but do not know what it is. It's a very hard material, like tile, but also a solid surface about 1/4 inch thick.

I'm sure someone out there is in the construction business that can answer this question. It also seemed that the signs in the lawn were made of this material ??

Thanks !!

Good question....I've always been impressed with the OKW showers as well.....it's a bit like Corian....hope someone has the answer.

Corian is one possibility:

FRP panels are another product you could use (about 1/8" thick)

Just google "Shower Surround"

Looks like cultured marble.

It is definitely "solid surface" material. Corian is one brand name of that, but there are plenty of others.
