Corian Bathroom Countertops Pros And Cons

Quartz

Light colored white quartz counter Quartz is a man-made, factory-engineered material made from about 93-94 percent ground quartz (the remaining 6-7 percent is polyester resins for binding and recycled glass or metallic flecks for aesthetics and appearance).

The countertops can be uniform in color and pattern, with many different shades to choose from, so your kitchen design options are limitless. Quartz countertops are known for being durable and rank No. 7 on Mohs hardness scale.

The countertops are heat, scratch, and stain resistant and require very little maintenance. Because they are nonporous, the counters do not need to be sealed or treated. This is an added advantage because that also makes it more difficult for mold, mildew, and bacteria to grow.

Quartz countertops are environmentally friendly and comparable in cost to granite.
