Quartz Countertops Info
Often referred to simply as 'quartz', this countertop material is a man-made, engineered material that incorporates ground, crushed quartz and other natural stone materials along with binding resins to produce a hard, non-porous surface material that does not need to be sealed. The component quartz stone is a natural crystalline material that is quarried from stone deposits found around the world, and the binding resins can include pigmentation resulting in myriad color options. This man-made stone is pressed into slabs for use as a finish surface material for countertops, backsplashes and other applications. The resulting engineered slab is a very hard material and has few imperfections since it is engineered and manufactured rather than 100% natural.
Engineered quartz is comprised of 90-93% natural mineral components that may come from a variety of sources along with 7-10% resin binding agents. Due to variations in the component minerals, the resins, and the manufacturing process, quartz can take on many different looks, colors, and designs. The resin in engineered quartz effectively seals the material, making it non-porous and meaning that no sealant is necessary after installation.
Quartz is a favorite throughout the country for countertop installations. It is an engineered, factory-made material composed of more than 90% natural materials, is quite hard and resistant to scratches and dings, as well as resistant to heat damage from hot pans, etc. Quartz countertops have many design options including color(s), veining, material composition, slab thickness, edge treatments, and more.
