Engineered Stone: Durable, Non-Porous Countertop Solution

Overview of Engineered Stone

Synthetic quartz stone is created from a combination of naturally occurring quartz aggregate and a polymer binder. These materials are made into an incredibly durable product with a smooth surface that is non-porous, making them particularly suitable for use in kitchens, restrooms, and commercial applications. The engineered stone has a uniform color; good resistance to scratches; and easy maintenance. When utilized appropriately, engineered stone has excellent stain-resistance properties, good heat-resistance properties, and is simple to clean and will not support microbial growth.

Advantages of Engineered Stone

Consistent Aesthetic

Each slab of the engineered stone will basically meet those same color/pattern standards, giving designers a means of achieving a cohesive and visually attractive look for all countertops, backsplashes, and surfaces, regardless of any variations between batch runs. This predictability allows designers to offer and provide precise, repeatable installations for each product.

Durability and Non-Porosity

The stain, bacteria and moisture protection (impregnated) for non porous surfaces results in a hygienic and cleanable kitchen surface. The combination of quartz aggregates and resin produce a very high level of impact resistance to both scratch and normal kitchen usage; however, due to being nonporous material, they do not absorb liquids or be porous.

Color Uniformity and Design Flexibility

With numerous hues and textures from natural quartz, engineered stone provides a design resource to suit any type of design style, whether modern or traditional; engineered stone gives you the option to match or contrast islands, edges, or get a highly durable finish with appropriate shade or color.

Low Maintenance and Cleanability

Gentle cleansers combined with a soft cleaning cloth will make surface cleaning simple and will help prevent permanent staining from coffee, wine, and citrus. Care for sealed or unsealed applications will depend upon the recommendations of the manufacturer to provide maximum life expectancy and the best possible appearance at all times.

Engineered Stone

Made from quartz chips that have been blended together using resin, engineered stone offers homeowners an extremely dense non-porous surface that is resistant to stains, scratches, and heat. Engineered stone has consistent colour throughout, it is an extremely strong edge material and is compatible with almost any type of sink or backsplash. Ideal for kitchen and bathroom areas as well as commercial applications, engineered stone supports bold design concepts while providing minimal maintenance requirements over time. Engineered stone also utilizes some of the best available low VOC binders.

F&Q About Engineered Stone

What is engineered stone made of?

Engineered stone is a composite material made of crushed quartz with resin as a binder; providing a non-porous surface with high density, which combines the beautiful look of natural stone with many additional properties of durability, stain resistance, and consistent performance.
Although engineered stone can resist heat, you should avoid exposing the surface to direct or extreme sources of heat. Trivets or pads should be used to protect the surface from heat; this will extend the life of engineered stone in kitchens where you frequently use your cooktop to prepare food.
To clean your countertop, use a mild detergent and soft rag or sponge. Rinse the countertop well and dry it to avoid long-term water spotting. Do not use harsh chemicals, bleach or anything that may have a dulling effect, such as steel or copper wool pads.
Engineered stone is ideal for countertops and backsplashes as well as for picnic tables and vanities. It can also be used in commercial settings to create a uniform appearance between interior spaces and provide excellent hygiene. The non-porous material is resistant to stain and maintains its appearance through colour consistency.
