Personal Taste Drives the Trend
It’s often a matter of personal taste when you choose the materials for your kitchen, bath or outdoor project. If your preference is for a more simple and an even look, then you may prefer the quartz over the more dramatic feel of natural stone like marble and granite. But whatever your style, the versatility, beauty and durability of quartz makes it desirable to many.
Durability and Low Maintenance
Typically composed of a blend of 93% quartz and 7% resin and pigments, the result is a strong and highly workable material with endless possibilities that can be used in many residential and commercial applications.
Although the composition of these quartz materials is relatively the same, the difference lies more in the palette, color and pattern that each company offers. With upwards of 30 colors available from manufacturers like Pentalquartz, Caesarstone, Silestone, Cambria, LG Hausys, Zodiaq or Compaq, it can be challenging to find just the right shade for your design.
What remains the same is the resilience of the material and its ability to withstand the demands of a hardworking kitchen, making it an ideal choice for busy people looking to cut out routine maintenance from potential scratching and staining.
Endless Variety
With a wide range of solid grays, light and dark browns and bright whites available, people love the look and feel of quartz’s pure colors. Pentalquartz’s Thassos White is one of the most desirable products on the market for its pure white color and versatility. It has a similar look and feel to classic marble, and works well in a traditional, contemporary or transitional style home or office setting.
Designers also love the versatility of the material, and there is a trend in designing kitchens with natural stone islands surround by a perimeter of engineered stone.
