What is the difference between 2-cm and 3-cm countertops?
These dimensions refer to the thickness of the stone. 2cm countertops are 3/4″ thick and are typically laminated to form a 1-1/2″ edge. 2cm countertops must be installed over a sub-top support. 3cm countertops are 1-1/4 inches thick. Typically they don’t have a laminated edge. 3cm counters don’t require a sub-top support unless you choose a laminated edge. In this case, your cabinets MUST be level.
