ENGINEERING

Quartz countertops are engineered slabs made from over 90% quartz and the rest is resins and coloring. Because they are engineered, they are also the stone countertop with the lowest porosity. That means they don’t stain and you don’t have to worry about liquid spills as much as you do with other types of stone countertops.

Engineered quartz achieves the most monochromatic options in a stone slab countertop. Quartz delivers the most consistent color with a minimum of graining—just enough to add a little sparkle to your countertops.
