Engineered quartz has quickly become one of newest counter top contenders in the past decade. Natural stone surfaces in general are a great look, with a shiny and sleek feel. Quartz counter tops are exploding in popularity, with U.S. sales increasing 60 percent in 2004!
How is it manufactured?
Some quartz counter tops are made of quarried slabs of the natural stone, however the new engineered material is created through a manufacturing process that mixes about 95 percent ground natural quartz with 5 percent polymer resins. With that comes a super-hard, low-maintenance, and natural stone-look countertop. And bonus; a variety of colors are available!
Why is it better than other surfaces?
These counter tops are close to indestructible and a lot more sanitary than other counter tops. Unlike other types of stone counter tops, quartz doesn’t take way to staining or corrosion from cooking oils, liquids and almost all household cleaning products.
