SileStone®


If you like the look and feel of natural stone but are concerned with real
issues then SileStone is the answer! SileStone is stone only made better.

Silestone is the world's leading natural quartz surface, with over 44
different colours to choose from, and an endless array of front edging,
SileStone offers a combination of strength and beauty creating a superior
choice for nearly any surface in your home or office. Ideal for kitchen
countertops, bathroom vanity tops, shower walls, flooring, table tops,
fireplace mantles, tub surrounds and so much more.

SileStone is engineered in Spain by Cosentino the world's leading
distributor of quartz surfaces. SileStone is 93% natural quartz bonded
together with resins and colourfast pigments to assure consistency in
colouring with the added features of stain and heat resistance. SileStone
requires very little maintenance, simply wipe your SileStone surface with
warm soapy water on a regular basis to maintain its natural beauty and
shine. Unlike other stone surfaces, SileStone's polished surface does not
need to be sealed to keep its lustrous shine.

SileStone is the first and only natural quartz surfacing with the
inclusion of Microban protection which provides a proven deterrent to the
growth of common bacteria, yeasts, molds and fungi that can cause stains,
odours, and product deterioration. Under certain conditions, microbes on
an untreated surface can double every 20 minutes. However, SileStone
natural quartz surfaces with built-in Microban protection, penetrates the
cell wall of organisms and inhibits their growth and reproduction. Unlike
surface applied coatings, SileStone incorporates Microban protection into
the molecular structure of the product during the manufacturing process so
it will not wash off or wear away. Providing continuous microbe
protection, SileStone surfaces are easier to clean and stay cleaner
between cleanings for the lifetime of the product.

The Silestone Advantage

Beyond beauty, the natural quartz in Silestone delivers unparalleled scratch resistance. While Silestone is not scratch-proof, a careless slip of a knife or accidentally dropped scissors will not mar its surface. Silestone is highly stain-resistant without needing to be sealed because it is not-porous. Spills from coffee, wine, lemon juice, olive oil or makeup are easy to wipe off with soapy water or a mild household cleaner without fear of staining. The strength of Silestone means easier handling, making it less susceptible to chipping, cracking or breaking -- a welcome benefit when you purchase Silestone for your home.

The Freedom to Be Creative

Silestone offers a wide spectrum of colors that rage from traditional shades to bolder hues not found in nature. Combine colors and edge profiles to create the look you want. Feel free to use Silestone anywhere in your home, vanity tops, shower walls, furniture tops, fireplace surrounds and so much more.
