GLASS RECYCLED – the Texas based firm that manufactures hard-surface materials for countertops and flooring for a variety of commercial and residential applications – announces their new simplified pricing program for 2012.

Plano, TX (PRWEB) February 08, 2012

GLASS RECYCLED – the Texas based firm that manufactures hard-surface materials for countertops and flooring for a variety of commercial and residential applications – announces their new simplified pricing program for 2012.

According to Tim Whaley, inventor of the GLASS RECYCLED process of recycling and transforming discarded glass and porcelain into beautiful, sustainable applications, “Since we have added literally hundreds of new color combinations to our product offerings, we decided to simplify the pricing process to make it even easier to specify our products for countertops, flooring and custom specialty decor uses. By streamlining pricing, designers and architects can now rely on one simple price per square foot regardless of the color or size combination specified.”

This simplified pricing program is available on products offered under the GLASS RECYCLED umbrella. The company’s major premise is taking unused glass and porcelain products of all shapes, sizes and colors and combining them in a unique epoxy system to create a granite-like product that has the added benefit of total customization in both color choices and final use. Like granite and other terrazzo-like materials, GLASS RECYCLED products are extremely durable and sophisticated but offer the added benefits of unlimited size and color combinations.

Hundreds of clients have already enjoyed the benefits of this sustainable product in major commercial and residential uses including flooring, wall panels, bars and countertops, bathrooms and landscape accents, as well as one-of-a-kind decorator touches including art-like murals and company logo uses.

GLASS RECYCLED has created four sub-brands including GlassSLAB - a stunning product suitable for kitchen countertops, bathrooms and other countertop applications in a variety of sizes, GlassPLANK - the company’s unique flooring and wall panel products that can be installed with seams as little as 1/64” and available in a variety of sizes and thickness, GlassDECOR - uniquely designed interior products that include recycled glass table tops, glass panels, ceiling tiles and other imaginable applications and GlassSCAPE – a recycled glass landscaping material, which is loose, bagged recycled glass and porcelain aggregate product that can be used as a permanent and beautiful alternative to groundcover, mulch or used in fountain and aquariums.

GLASS RECYCLED recently unveiled their exclusive Designer Showcase online. Hundreds of color combinations can be viewed, or one can create their own combination and the company will produce a sample to view before ordering. With the company’s new streamlined pricing structure, a simple calculation is all that is needed to finalize budgets to include this cutting edge product. To find out more about GLASS RECYCLED – which is marketed and fabricated in the Dallas-Fort Worth area of Texas and shipped internationally as needed, visit GlassRecycled.com, phone 888.523.7894 or contact glassrecycled(at)gmail(dot)com.

GLASS RECYCLED Announces Their New Simplified Pricing Program

Beltsville, Maryland (PRWEB) February 08, 2012

My Home Granite started planning the construction of their online portfolio of residential granite countertops in Maryland and other areas they serve last fall, and has finally made it live on their recently launched website.

Ideas don’t come easy to a human being when they are constantly under different types of stress. “It is very difficult to think outside of the box when you are constantly worried about things that demand your full attention, such as the kids, work, groceries, cooking etc., so in turn it is very difficult to get your creative juices flowing; well, we’ve tried to simplify this by providing our clients with endless options for their redesign projects, such as their kitchen, bathroom, bar top etc.” says president of My Home Granite.

Natural stone has now taken a different turn over the past decade. Granite countertops were once one of the most popular applications of granite and natural stone, but due to its popularity and automation of the industry which has helped to bring overall costs down, people are getting much more creative with what they can use granite for. We now find people doing shower surrounds, fireplace surrounds, bar top areas, laundry rooms, shelves, dinning and coffee tables and hundreds of other applications which are all human created.

“We wanted a place on our site to provide our clients with different ideas and options for their granite countertops, and I think we’ve accomplished that” says Joe – sales and marketing vice president.

My Home Granite is a leading granite countertop fabricator located in Beltsville Maryland. They have been around since 1997 and specialize in natural stone surfaces. You can visit their website or contact them at (240) 607-6470.

In the beginning God created the heavens and the Earth, including a form of igneous rock called granite, a mass composed mostly of silica and aluminum that makes up a large part of the continental crust, and comes in all the colors of the rainbow and signifies majesty and serenity. On the kajillionth day, or thereabouts, we mined that granite and we made countertops.

We laid those countertops in kitchens all across the land, in condos and co-ops, in Pittsburgh and Portland. Now that the entire United States has been good and covered, from slab to shining slab, we can take a step back and analyze the age of the granite countertop. Think about what it’s all meant.

It’s meant that we wanted something easy to clean.

What else does it mean?

The Kellys, Paul and Joyce, bought the house 30 years ago, from the ex-wife of the guy who built it. He’d designed it in the spirit of a California rambler, then run off to actual California, leaving his ex to live in his dream. The place was a disaster back then — oh, you should have seen it — powder-blue carpet, white grand piano. And the kitchen? Walls, blocking the dining room, blocking the view down to the river. Formica abounded, or maybe it was another kind of laminate. Paul redid those countertops in the 1990s. He used tile, which was popular then. The Kellys lived with the tile for 20 years, but it was the kind of countertop that you could scrub and scrub and never get to sparkle.

“It was starting to rot, and the grout was all yicky,” explains Joyce.

Some women in her book club were getting new kitchens. Several of them on this Silver Spring block — bip bip bip, all in a row, new countertops. It became a thing as they all decided they wanted to age in place, but not if their places had disgusting kitchens. Joyce looked at her friends’ ambitious kitchen plans, and decided it was time. In October, the Kellys went to a granite dealer. They ordered granite countertops.

“This was the most expensive granite they had,” says Joyce, explaining that they splurged on materials and saved by doing the installation themselves. “It has totally fabulous flow.”

“Joyce walked in and immediately bonded with the granite,” says Paul, a retired mathematician.

“It’s very hip. It has green and rust,” Joyce says, which brings out the cherry in the cabinets. It has a name: Crema Bordeaux. Anywhere in the world, granite of this color is called Crema Bordeaux, just like anywhere in the world, an Ikea Poang chair is an Ikea Poang chair. “Just look at it.”

It looks — it looks like granite. It looks like lovely granite, but granite is in the eye of the beholder, and the unique characteristics of one’s own granite are not immediately apparent to a newcomer. One’s own granite sings a special siren song. All around the country, couples leave parties and get in their cars and say to each other, “I’m so glad we went with the Santa Cecilia instead of the Kashmir Gold.”

Joyce pauses. She looks concerned.

“I would be more comfortable,” she says, “if we were talking about something that was important.” Something that mattered. She is not a frivolous person. She knows the difference between what matters and what doesn’t.
