Epoxy Resin is the modern laboratory worktop material that offers a superb combination of features and benefits. It is durable, extremely chemical and stain resistant, mechanically strong, easily cleaned and decontaminated and exhibits good fire resistance, fire propagation and low smoke properties. Simmons mould components in solid Epoxy Resin material that cannot delaminate and has the same properties throughout its entire thickness. Epoxy Resin is moulded into a wide range of components of different sizes to cater for the most exacting of laboratory specifications, and is available in a range of subtle and aesthetically pleasing colours. These material qualities are supplemented by more than 30 years of experience of accurately casting and fabricating Epoxy Resin in Simmons Coventry factory using programmable saws and CNC Routers to ensure dimensional accuracy. The Simmons range consists of Worktops (Benchtops), Edgings (Lippings), Sinks, Sinktops and Fume Cupboard Bases. Simmons standard range of sinks and troughs are moulded complete with a fixing flange in order to simplify fitment and to optimise the integrity of the joint with the benchtop. An overhang (underslung) sink is bonded and screwed to the underside of a benchtop with the bench slightly overhanging the sink opening. This type of fitment is also commonly referred to as ‘underslung’. This fitment is adequate for many general laboratory applications. The base of the sink slopes to a hole rebated to accept a waste fitting. Sinks can also be drilled to accept an overflow fitting. Simmons can supply sinks complete with a waste and overflow if requested.
