LAS VEGAS, NV -- Neolith, a brand of all-natural, premium compact surfaces for kitchen and bathroom countertops, flooring, interior wall cladding applications and exterior facades, unveiled its new Classtone product line at the 2014 Kitchen and Bath Industry Show (KBIS). The product features a marble aesthetic imprinted on Neolith's reliable, high-performance brand of sintered compact surface, a new material category in the industry.
"Neolith is perfect for architects, interior designers and other industry professionals who really aim at impressing their clients with striking designs and high-performance spaces," said Mario Ramirez, sales representative, North American markets, TheSize, LLC. "Experts are able to add a touch of lasting extravagance to homes, knowing that their clients can depend on the product for years to come."
The Classtone line is the latest addition to the growing portfolio of the Neolith brand, manufactured by Spanish company, TheSize. In an effort to connect past and future, Classtone pulls from the sheer sophistication of marble and pairs it with the innovative design and technical features of Neolith's classic product. Utilizing Neolith Digital Design (NDD), the state of the art decoration technique to attain marble-like features, the result is simple, yet attention-grabbing: a revival of classicism able to compete in the modern age. The product comes in four warm and intense colors: Pulpis, Marfil, Estauario and Marquina. Available in a 1/2" thickness, Classtone is especially suited for countertops.
The Neolith brand is the outcome of the latest research and development processes in the industry. The product is 100 percent natural, composed of raw materials--clays, feldspar, silica and natural mineral oxides--and is recyclable. Neolith has near-zero porosity, making the product hygienic, stain resistant, easy to clean and impervious to chemicals. The product is also wear, scratch, heat resistant and its colors, because they are all-natural, do not vary when exposed to UV rays. Additionally, the product is lightweight and easy to install, making Neolith suitable for virtually every indoor and outdoor home surface.

Some of the main trends gleaned from the survey are that the open-concept kitchen is still widely popular, granite and quartz are the materials of choice when it comes to countertops, mixing appliance materials is considered, and conservative colors schemes dominate the market. The study also found that 49 percent of the responders believe in completely gutting the existing kitchen, while 42 percent prefer to update their existing space.
In terms of finishes and colors, 65 percent of responders are incorporating stainless steel appliances into their kitchen design, while many are also combining stainless with white or color appliances or integrating appliances into the cabinetry. Soft and neutral tones were most popular with responders, and topping the list of must-have appliances are a chefs stove, double ovens and induction cooktops.
Half of the responders chose stone as the preferred material for countertops, with quartz coming in as a close second with 36 percent. Top backsplash choices include tile and glass, and top flooring choices include hardwood and tile.
The study also found that homeowners under the age of 45 prefer a contemporary design in their kitchens, while the traditional look is most popular with those over the age of 45. Seventy-nine percent of the responders said they chose to or are choosing to renovate their kitchens to improve the look and feel of the space, and 59 percent want to improve the kitchens function. Other motivators include appliance upgrades, improved storage and increasing the homes value. Only half of the responders were concerned with creating an eco-friendly kitchen in terms of appliance and material selection.
Out of the 7,812 homeowners who were surveyed, 32 percent have already begun construction on their kitchens, and 68 percent have yet to start, although it seems likely they know where they want to go once they get there. To see the full study, please click here.

Kitchen Trends Study Reveals the Trends Most Popular with Homeowners
Information was as abundant as optimism this week at the International Builders Show in Las Vegas, where more than 75,000 home builders and suppliers gathered to discuss topics ranging from new building products to buyers preferences.
Many economists predict that 2014 will build upon the home-market gains from last year, bringing big increases in the number of homes built and of new homes sold. That bullish outlook contributed to rising attendance at the conference and a resurgence of exhibitors offering luxury and discretionary items.
Meanwhile, builders boned up on strategies to keep the momentum going, such as learning that buyers covet low-emissive windows and dont much care for outdoor kitchens. Heres a look at a few pearls offered up at this weeks conference.
1) Walk-In Closets In, Laminate Countertops Out: Buyers this year really like big closets attached to their master bedrooms. Outdoor fireplaces? Not so much.
The conferences organizer, the National Association of Home Builders, outlined the results of its December survey of buyers preferences. The top new-home characteristics most favored by respondents, in order: walk-in closets, low-e heat-reflecting windows, laundry rooms, great rooms, energy-star related appliances and programmable thermostats.
Getting the most thumbs-down votes from respondents: laminate countertops, outdoor kitchens,outdoor fireplaces, sunrooms and two-story family rooms.
2) New Homes Are Still Growing: Americans, when they can afford it, nearly always opt for a larger house. Consider that the average size of a newly built home in the U.S. has increased for five consecutive years to 2,679 square feet.
Census data shows that, last year, 48% of newly built U.S. homes had four or more bedrooms, according to a builders association presentation at the show. Thats up from 34% in 2009. New homes with three or more bathrooms increased to 35% last year, up from 23% in 2010. Those with three-car garages increased to 22% last year from 16% in 2010. And two-story homes rose to 60% of all construction starts last year from 51% in 2009.
3) Boomers Not Done Yet:The Baby Boomers arent ceding the home market to Generations Y and Z yet.
Jonathan Smoke, chief economist at research firm Hanley Wood LLC, pointed out at the conference that buyers aged 55 years and older are forecast to account for 25% of the home-buying market this year. That ratio is likely to grow in the coming years, he added.
