Kew is one of Melbourne’s most established renovation markets. Period homes with significant kitchen investment are the norm, and marble, Calacatta, Statuario, Volakas, Carrara, features prominently in kitchen designs that are built to last decades. DURAFLEX installs polyurethane surface protection film for Kew properties, protecting the stone investment at a fraction of the replacement cost.

Why marble needs more than sealing

Sealing is not wrong. It is simply incomplete. A penetrating sealer reduces the porosity of the stone surface and slows the rate at which liquids are absorbed. What it cannot do is prevent etching, the surface-level acid reaction that dulls polished marble and accumulates visibly over years of kitchen use. DURAFLEX SPF Ultra stops etching by interposing a chemically resistant polyurethane layer between the acid and the stone. There is no reaction because there is no contact.

Protecting Kew stone investments

The stone in a Kew kitchen renovation is typically chosen for its long-term visual impact. Book-matched panels, feature veining, rare quartzites, these are not selections that can be casually replaced if the surface degrades. DURAFLEX is invisible in normal use, self-healing against minor surface marks, and backed by a 10-year warranty. The stone looks the same. It behaves differently.

Trained installation, permanent results

DURAFLEX installers come exclusively from the automotive paint protection film industry. The precision of automotive film work, tension management across large sheets, edge trimming, heat sealing, carries directly into stone installation. Every Kew job is heat sealed after application, closing the edges permanently and eliminating the conditions that lead to bubbling or lifting over time.
