Frequently Asked

Questions About Metropolitan

What does Neolith Metropolitan look like?
Neolith Metropolitan features a cool mid-grey surface with the distinctive linear grain of brushed stainless steel. The effect is sleek, professional, and immediately contemporary — capturing the character of a high-end commercial kitchen's steel surfaces in a format that is far more forgiving and practical for residential use.
How does Metropolitan compare to Iron Frost?
Both feature cool grey metallic character, but from different collections with different aesthetics. Iron Frost from the Iron collection has a frosted, cold-worked quality with a slightly more industrial feel. Metropolitan from the Steel collection has a distinctive linear brushed grain that is more specifically reminiscent of commercial kitchen stainless steel. Iron Frost is architectural; Metropolitan is culinary.
Is Metropolitan better than real stainless steel?
For residential worktop use, Metropolitan offers significant practical advantages over real stainless steel. It does not scratch, does not show fingerprints to the same degree, never needs polishing, and maintains its appearance without any specialist maintenance. It also provides better noise dampening than metal surfaces and does not conduct heat from hot pans to the underside structure.
What kitchen styles suit Metropolitan?
Metropolitan is ideal for professional-style, modern industrial, and sleek contemporary kitchens. It pairs exceptionally well with stainless steel appliances, creating a cohesive professional kitchen aesthetic. Dark charcoal or white cabinetry both work well, along with chrome or brushed steel hardware that echoes the metallic character.
Can Metropolitan be used for commercial installations?
Yes. Metropolitan's professional kitchen aesthetic and exceptional durability make it an excellent choice for commercial environments including restaurant prep areas, bar tops, cafe counters, and professional kitchen islands. The surface resists commercial cleaning chemicals, heavy use, and the demands of professional food preparation environments.
★★★★★
"Excellent Service and Beautiful Results - Highly Recommended! I recently had In2stone install new quartz worktops in my kitchen, and I couldn't be happier with the results. From start to finish, the experience was completely stress-free. The team was not only competitively priced but also incredibly friendly and professional throughout the entire process. They handled everything seamlessly - removing the existing sink, hob, and old laminate worktops before fitting the new quartz surfaces. The finished worktops are absolutely beautiful and have transformed my kitchen into a modern, minimalist space that I love spending time in. The quality of workmanship is outstanding, and the attention to detail really shows. I'm a very satisfied customer and would highly recommend In2stone to anyone considering new worktops. Well done to the entire team - you've exceeded my expectations!"
