Quartz, also referred to as ground quartz, is manufactured with the addition of polyester resins that are mixed in as coloring and binding agents. Quartz is often likened to granite because of its appearance and nonporous quality. So this type of countertop naturally befits your kitchen and bathroom environment. A super quality for using quartz countertops is that it doesn't need to be sealed. That quality makes it hyper resilient in blocking bacteria and associated water damage. There are other benefits that you gain from using quartz countertops.

Luster Of Countertops

When you view finished quartz countertops, you will be immediately impressed by the luster of the countertops that are all naturally shiny. That's because the engineering of the product presents a smooth uniformity, which is enhanced by the blending in of color that you have chosen as well as veining in the finished product.

A Wide Array Of Color Choices

The wide array of colors that you choose from gives the manufacturers control over the resulting pigment appearance when the resin and crushed quartz come together. Manufacturers use the formation of this mix to craft striking color hues with consistency that easily aids the matching up of seams on the quartz slabs. That benefits your quartz countertop choices.

Very Durable Countertops

Another quality that stands out in quartz countertops is the product's durability. Quartz is a very hard material that is ideally created for a long-lasting work surface. The reason why this product is so hard is that manufacturers add a low amount of resin, approximately 6 to 10 percent, binding materials in its mix while other countertop manufacturers use a higher amount of binding materials in their countertop products. Quartz-manufactured countertops validate that the product is made from 90 percent of mineral content, which makes it more durable than other types of countertop products.

Quartz Requires Low Maintenance.

No scrubbing is needed when spills occur on quartz countertops. All you have to do is quickly wipe up the spills with paper towels. You can also just use soap and water or other staple household cleansers. Remember that quartz is stain and scratch-resistant. So you don't have to scramble around looking for a harsh product in order to clean this type of countertop.

Should You Choose Stunning White Quartz Countertops?

Classic white countertops are stunning to look at. This color is sought by many, but other colors are just as popular too. You just have to decide what color is best for your kitchens, bathrooms, and other areas in your home. If you intend to sell your home at some point in the future, carefully think about the color of countertops that you think a purchaser of your home might like.
