“AUSTIN’S CUSTOM TOPS AIDS IN ENVIRONMENTAL PRESERVATION BY OFFERING “GREEN” COUNTERTOP ALTERNATIVES”

Austin’s eco-friendly solution to counter-tops is Austin’s Custom Tops. Austin natives and co-owners, Eric Riley and Shaun Hrncir, founded their company, amidst a waning economy, in an effort to aid homeowners and builders to save money while making a positive impact on the environment. With only a small number of other companies offering green products in Texas, Austin’s Custom Tops has proven to be a pioneer in the industry with their new product; ECO™ by Cosentino countertop is a durable surface made of 75% recycled content composed of post-industrial or post-consumer materials and is bound by an environmentally friendly resin which comes in part from corn oil. ECO is also an ideal substitute for natural or engineered stone.

Spurred by their love of nature and the outdoors, Riley and Hrncir have been active in the environmental community, participating in groups such as the Sierra Club and the American Consumer Council. In an effort to preserve their beliefs when opening their business, says Riley, “we researched many variations of eco-friendly countertop options. We wanted one that not only had a high percentage of recycled material, but also one that lived up to our standards for quality.” According to Hrncir, “when we saw the quality and green benefits of ECO, no other product, in our opinion, was an option.”

Austin’s Custom Tops is a full service countertop specializes in residential and commercial installation, with a portfolio ranging from a downtown loft to Army Barracks.
