Quartz

Information and Care Guide

Quartz is made of approximately 94% natural quartz aggregates and a small amount of pigments and polyester resins which form the balance of the material. It has the strength and durability of the strongest granite, but is a non-porous surface.

Cleaning

If needed, use a non-abrasive, household cleaners such as Mr. Clean Magic Eraser, Soft Scrub Liquid Gel with Bleach, Comet Gel along with the a non-scratch or delicate scrub pad such as Scotch-Brite. Abrasive cleaners will dull the surface's shine. To remove adhered material such as: food or nail polish, first scrape away the excess material with a plastic putty knife and then clean the surface with a damp cloth to remove marks or any residual dirt.

Sealing

The high gloss finish and non-porous nature provide maximum resistance to staining. No sealing is required.

Scratches/Chips:

Quartz is resistant to cracks, chips, scratches and stains. However, like most materials, excessive force and/or pressure from objects can damage the surface.

Heat

Quartz is not affected by heat below 400 degrees Fahrenheit but it is not advised to place hot pans directly on the material. Trivets are recommended when using cooking units such as electric frying pans, crock pots or roaster ovens.
