Quartz is composed of 93% crushed quartz, one of nature's hardest minerals. The quartz is combined with high quality polyester resins and pigments and compacted into dense slabs is four times stronger, flexible and twice more impact resistant than stone, offering unparalleled durability with the appearance of natural stone. Quartz is a non-porous material, which is stain proof, scratch, heat and chemical resistant, and virtually maintenance free.

 

There are many benefits that come from using Quartz.

 

These include:

 

• A long lasting warranty

• Stain resistance

• Scratch resistance

• Mould and mildew resistance

• Chip and crack resistance

• Heat and burn resistance

• Resistance to chemicals, acids and solvents

• Immunity to freezing and thawing

 

In fact, Quartz is stronger, more durable, cleaner, safer, and more consistent than natural stone such as granite or marble.  Natural stone may have flaws or veins, while Quartz has more consistency in its pattern, making it great for decorator uses.
