Engineered Stone: Durable, Non-Porous & Low-Maintenance

Overview of Engineered Stone

Man-made stone is strong and cannot absorb fluids. It has colors that are uniform in appearance due to the way they were made. Man-made stone is made from crushed quartz crystals, mixed with resin and polymer as adhesive materials. It is very durable and will not require much maintenance. Therefore, it is suitable for use in a kitchen, bathroom, and for commercial use. They are attractive, durable and practical. This is a material that will last for many years to come, as the style of the manufactured stone will remain consistent through all applications.

Advantages of Engineered Stone

Non-porous Surface

The engineered stone is a non-porous material with high resistance to stains, moisture, or bacteria making it easy to clean and sanitize. The stone has a tightly woven structure which helps to reduce scratches and burns caused by excessive heat helping maintain a clean finish throughout its life even in a high use daily environment.

Scratch and Impact Resistance

The quartz composite provides excellent resistance against scratching, denting, chipping, and maintaining the edge and color consistency, gloss, and overall appearance throughout many years of wear from high volume traffic and culinary uses in busy areas.

Low Maintenance and Hygiene

Cleaning engineered stone is easy. Just use soap and water and do not use harsh chemicals. You should only reseal the surface if necessary. The smooth surface of the stone does not allow bacteria and/or mold to grow, making it easy to clean and giving you a consistent, bright look all the time.

Design Flexibility and Aesthetics

The use of engineered stone provides designers with a palette to customize slabs of various finishes in multiple colors, patterns, and edges for use in their own unique designs. Engineered stone products are manufactured to consistently retain their visual appearance without showing signs of use; this gives designers the ability to develop original designs that will complement traditional homes/decors.

Engineered Stone

Premium engineered stone is a low-maintenance countertop material that combines the beauty of natural stone with consistency and performance characteristics. Made from quartz, this engineered stone is extremely hard, heat resistant, impact resistant, and provides a non-porous surface that will not stain or harbor mold. The engineered stone is a good choice for kitchens, bathrooms, and light commercial use. It is available in a variety of colours, textures and edge details to match both modern and traditional design styles and provide long-lasting durability.

F&Q About Engineered Stone

Is engineered stone stain resistant?

In fact, a lot of engineered stone materials will use recycled or crushed quartz aggregates and recyclable resins along with an efficient manufacturing process. If properly fabricated and installed, it results in less material waste; less maintenance; and sustainable kitchens and indoor environments.
Typical kitchen temperatures will be fine with engineered stone materials, however again you should not place direct contact with hot pots. Always use a trivet or similar device to place hot cookware onto your countertop rather than directly on the counter; doing so will help reduce the chance of thermal shock or discoloration occur when using hot food.
Recycled or crushed quartz aggregate is commonly used to manufacture engineered stone products, along with recyclable resins and efficient manufacturing. Properly installed and fabricated, these engineered stone products minimize waste, require less maintenance and promote “sustainable” (green) kitchens and interior environments.
Engineered stone has a uniform color, pattern, and thickness compared to quarried stone and typically has fewer imperfections than natural granite or marble. This also gives you an appearance that looks similar to natural stone, but is not as difficult to maintain or as costly, while still performing effectively in the same applications of kitchen islands, countertops or surfaces.
