Food is an important way for people to connect with their cultures, experiment with new flavors, experience nostalgia, and enjoy time with friends and family. That’s probably why we spend about 400 hours every year in our kitchens.
High-quality countertops are a fundamental necessity for those who cook each day. Read on to learn some characteristics and benefits of quartz surfaces.
The Characteristics of Quartz Slabs
Quartz is a type of engineered stone that comes in a wide range of colors and styles. You can choose quartz made to look like marble or granite as well as those in bright colors that match modern decor schemes.
Quartz isn’t a natural stone but is instead created and engineered in a factory setting. It’s made primarily of natural quartz, but that’s combined with polyester resins. These resins bind it together durably and create a non-porous surface.
Benefits of Quartz Slab Countertops
Non-porous countertops are resistant to stains and scratches. If you spill something, all you need to do is wipe up the mess. Engineered quartz is extremely low-maintenance and will stay in good shape for decades.
Engineered stone is more durable than natural stone because it’s harder. It’s specially made for kitchen surfaces, so pressure from knives and other cooking equipment won’t cause scratching or chipping. It also is heat-resistant so you can put pots and pans down on the surface without any issues.
Quartz comes in many size options and edge profiles so you’ll have the precise cooking surface you need. It’s not just stylish – it’s functional, too.
