South Yarra combines some of Melbourne’s most architecturally considered apartment developments with established homes and recent high-end renovations. In both contexts, marble and natural stone benchtops are a defining feature, and in both contexts, they are routinely installed without adequate protection. DURAFLEX installs polyurethane surface protection film for South Yarra properties, from single-benchtop apartments to full kitchen renovations in period homes.

Marble in South Yarra kitchens and apartments

The challenge of protecting marble in a high-use apartment kitchen is identical to protecting it in a house, acids etch, oils stain, and sealing addresses neither problem completely. What changes in an apartment context is that the stone often cost more per square metre, the kitchen gets more concentrated use, and replacement is significantly more disruptive. A physical barrier that prevents damage from reaching the stone is not a luxury in that context. It is the logical conclusion of spending money on marble in the first place.

DURAFLEX SPF Ultra for South Yarra stone

DURAFLEX SPF Ultra is a five-layer polyurethane film engineered specifically for natural stone in kitchen environments. It is optically clear, self-healing against minor surface contact marks, and chemically resistant to every substance a kitchen benchtop encounters. Installation is completed in a single visit with no downtime, the kitchen is in normal use the same day. The 10-year warranty covers bubbling, lifting, and yellowing.

Automotive precision on every installation

Every DURAFLEX installer comes from the automotive paint protection film industry. The precision required for vehicle panels, working large sheets of film with consistent tension, trimming to tolerances of a millimetre, heat sealing every edge, transfers directly to stone installation. The result is a finish that holds for a decade and a warranty that means it.
