Quartz Worktops in Kent

How it quartz made?

Quartz worktops, like granite worktops, begin their journey at quarries all around the world. Quartz can be found everywhere from Brazil to India and many other countries . Clusters of quartz are extracted from the ground and weighed to get a roughly 90 percent quartz content (depending on specific brands) before being combined with other materials. Different brands, such as Caesarstone, Silestone, Global Granite and others are likely to have slight differences in the exact percentage of quartz content, although the numbers will always be close to 90 percent.

The crushed quartz is combined with polyester resins, pigments and more. Because they contain high amounts of quartz, these engineered stone slabs can replicate the look of natural stone countertops.

After the materials are mixed together, they are compacted by significant amounts of pressure. This forms the quartz slabs which are then polished and coated to create the slabs you chose from us.
