Beginning in 1996, Counter Production has been manufacturing Vetrazzo slabs in Berkeley, CA. Each slab is hand made from various mixtures of post consumer and/or post-industrial recycled glass (over 85%). Its strength allows practically any architectural application of the material as a solid surface. They are often used for countertops and tables (indoor or outdoor), but can also be used as flooring. With over 500 successful installations, Counter Production has become a leader in recycled materials with a growing number of nationwide retailers and fabricators. ::Counter Production
Vetrazzo was featured in the National Building Museum exhibition, "Liquid Stone: New Architecture in Concrete"
