Quartz is actually harder than granite and therefore more durable. In fact, quartz is almost indestructible and because it’s not porous like granite, it’s easy to keep your worktops relatively bacteria-free.
CAN WE CUT FOOD ON A QUARTZ WORKTOP?
Quartz is scratch-resistant, but not scratch-proof. Even though quartz worktops are incredibly durable, they are not cutting boards. Never cut directly into the worktops to avoid scratching the finish and making the stone more vulnerable to stains.
WHAT'S THE BEST SOLUTION FOR YOUR KITCHEN: MARBLE OR GRANITE?
When it comes to durability and hardness, granite wins! It is comparatively stronger and more durable than marble, which makes it more resistant to scratches and chips.
IS IT EASIER TO CLEAN A MARBLE OR GRANITE WORKTOP?
A granite worktop is simply more durable and less labour-intensive to clean and maintain than a marble worktop.
CAN WE CUT FOOD ON A GRANITE WORKTOP?
Granite is one of the hardest stones in the world and will not be affected by knives or the heat of anything. Hot pans can be placed directly on the granite without causing any alteration to the exposed area.
HOW TO CLEAN MARBLE WORKTOPS?
Marble is naturally weak in resistance to scratches and stains due to the softness and porous nature of the stone. For daily cleaning, the best results can be achieved with a cloth and water. The use of abrasive products or common household cleaners is not recommended. When unsure about a product, test it on a small inconspicuous area.
WHY CHOOSE NATURAL STONE?
Natural stone is a high quality material with a long life cycle. It can be used in different environments (from building elements to decorative elements). Its main advantages are beauty, resistance and durability.
COULD MY CHOICE OF NATURAL STONE BE VERY DIFFERENT FROM THE ONE SHOWN ON YOUR WEBSITE?
As all the stones are completely natural, we cannot guarantee the colour. All stones are different. We always try to match the colour to what you have chosen and liked.
