About quartz
Quartz is crystallised silicon dioxide (SiO2), which is usually white or transparent, although it can be found in other colours if it comes into contact with impurities during its formation. It can be found in its pure state or present in other components. However, due to its high hardness and resistance to acids, it is used to make a wide variety of products that require precision and high performance. This type of quartz is the main component of Silestone slabs.
Stain resistance
Silestone is a non-porous surface and highly resistant to stains such as coffee, wine, lemon juice and olive oil,
vinegar and other everyday products.
High acid resistance
Quartz is one of the hardest minerals in existence. This makes our products very durable and highly resistant to external aggressions.
Scratch resistance
Quartz is one of the hardest minerals in existence. This makes our products very durable and highly resistant to external aggressions.
Impact resistance
Silestone is highly resistant to impacts, clearly outperforming other similar products such as granite and solid surfaces. This feature guarantees safety in your kitchen when handling objects such as pans, glass bottles, etc.
This resistance is achieved through the hardness of the quartz, the elasticity of its polyester resin and the vibrocompression system used during its production.
Bacteriostatic protection
Silestone is the only brand that contains bacteriostatic protection, developed by Cosentino, which is based on the use of state-of-the-art silver to prevent the spread of bacteria.
With this formula, Silestone worktops offer greater hygiene for your kitchen and bathroom.
Wide range of colours
Silestone is available in more than 60 colours, so you’re sure to find the right colour and texture for your kitchen or bathroom.
