Plastics have a long honored tradition in counter tops - from the old stand-by of laminate counters like Formica to the composite solid surface counters like Corian.
But counter tops made from paper? Check out shetkaStone. Along with counters, they fabricate table tops, benches, moldings and more - all with a 100% sustainable life cycle - from pre and post-consumer waste paper!
Prices fall between Corian and Granite. The site bills the product as durable, food safe, and stain, water, bacteria and scorch resistant. 
You can request samples through the website for a small fee.
