Engineered Quartz: 4 Premium Options for Commercial Projects

Overview of Engineered Quartz

Quartz surfaces offer customers a high degree of durability, stain resistance, and color consistency for use in both residential and commercial kitchens and baths. Non-porous quartz surfaces are easy to maintain due to their ability to resist moisture and mold. In addition, they retain an attractive appearance over time. There are numerous options available for selection when choosing quartz surfaces to accommodate your specific design aesthetic.

Advantages of Engineered Quartz

Excellent Durability

The material has excellent resistance to scratches and impacts from everyday kitchen use and has even coloration throughout the entire slab, making it easy to replace pieces as needed and to maintain its durability for many years. This material will also resist chipping and retain its beautiful appearance for many years.

Low Maintenance

The non-porous surface is resistant to stains, mold, and bacteria and makes cleaning a simple matter of wiping down the product. Slabs having consistent colour reduces the amount of time spent on matching patterns, and the heat tolerance allows for the use of the product in kitchens, bathrooms, or commercial applications.

Versatile Design Options

Engineered quartz provides designers with the ability to design for any style of décor using a wide variety of colors, textures and edges which can achieve characteristics such as marble-like softness to bold modern finishes with consistent colouration, non-porosity (vacuum sealed), superior consistency from batch to batch, etc.

Sustainability and Longevity

Engineered quartz combines plentiful amounts of recycled resin and existing mineral resources to offer a much lower environmental footprint than traditional types of stone products. Nonetheless, the long life expectancy of an engineered quartz product will further reduce the frequency of replacing them, and therefore the amount of maintenance waste produced during this time, while improving air quality inside of buildings.

Engineered Quartz

When mixed with resin, engineered quartz combines natural quartz and resin to yield a strong, non-porous material that is heat and stain resistant. The consistent veining and patterns of engineered quartz allow for precise installation and the ability to cut each slab at a consistent thickness. The surface of engineered quartz is easy to clean with a mild cleaner, and its composition is such that it will not need to be sealed as a natural stone would. Additionally, engineered quartz comes in many different formats that can have matching edge profiles that allow for continuous countertop surfaces or bold and modern surface patterns.

F&Q About Engineered Quartz

Is engineered quartz heat resistant?

Although engineered quartz is able to resist heat for regular use, you should not leave hot objects, such as pans or pots, sitting on it for an extended period of time as it may cause damage. You should always use a trivet, and refer to the manufacturer's recommended guidelines when using the product.
The outdoor applications for engineered quartz are limited because UV exposure and temperature changes can affect how it looks. Some engineered quartz might be safe to use outdoors if they have the proper warranty coverage; consult your supplier for specific recommendations before making an outdoor purchase.
Maintenance isn't complicated at all: just clean it down with a little mild soap and water - no need for abrasives! Use cutting boards and trivets to protect edges from scratches, and if your installer recommends it, reseal as necessary. Cleaning helps preserve the colour, sheen and integrity of the surface.
Different manufacturers provide different warranty covers for engineered quartz, and the coverage is subject to change depending on your region. Engineered quartz typically has warranties against visible defects (and) excessive wear (for an amount of time). Contact your supplier for specific warranty terms, exclusions, and installation requirements.
