GRANITE OR QUARTZ?

Granite or Quartz? What is the difference?

Granite have been made with love by Mother Earth. She’s not a copy and paste type of girl so every Granite slab is unique in itself and varies in different mixes of stripes, shades and colours. It’s important to put a Granite top in a “quite” cupboard, meaning that your cupboards have no lines or formations and that it has a solid colour. The Granite blocks are mined and sawed into Granite pure stone slabs or tiles and then polished for installation.

Quartz countertops are man-made stone, manufactured from crushed quartz rock that is then mixed with pigment for coloration and resin as a binder. The Quartz content normally range from 92% to 94%. Quartz has many solid colours to choose from but the standard colours are normally white, black, grey, cream and red. Quartz that has a solid colour, can be installed on “busy” cupboards, meaning if you cupboards have stripes, lines or formations.
