Quartz is crystallised silicon dioxide (SiO2), which is usually white or transparent, although it can be found in other colors if it comes into contact with impurities during its formation.

It is found either in a pure state or present in other compounds. However, because of its extreme hardness and resistance to acids, it is used to make a large variety of products that require precision and top-quality performance. This type of quartz forms the main component in Silestone boards.

Silestone is internationally certified to ensure maximum safety and protection. Such certificates offer consumers the assurance that Silestone is a safe, top-quality material. Silestone certificates offer a 100% guarantee.
