Ever wonder what becomes of your recycled phone books and magazines? Now they can be turned into countertops for your kitchen and bath. Using a patented process, the waste paper is mixed into a slurry which is then hardened and shaped, creating countertops that are three feet wide and up to 20 feet long. ShektaStone is made with 100% waste paper and can be sawed, sanded, glued or nailed and can accept an undermount sink.
