Quartz stone is an artificial stone.
When buying kitchen countertops, many people have heard the introduction of the shopping guide: “This is artificial stone, this is quartz stone.”
It feels like quartz stone countertops should be natural stone different from artificial stone, and the price of quartz stone is generally higher than that of artificial stone. But in fact, quartz stone countertops are also a kind of artificial stone.
The artificial stone currently used for home decoration mainly includes artificial quartz stone, artificial marble/granite, solid surface material (ordinary artificial stone), and other materials.
Artificial quartz stone is made by adding quartz sand, quartz stone powder, and resin, and then pressurizing and vacuuming. It is characterized by high hardness and strong stain resistance and can be used for kitchen, bathroom countertops, or floor decoration.
Many quartz countertops on the market look very natural stone color, and the colors are rich, and also very confusing, but the quartz stone itself should be colorless and transparent, and all the colors seen on the market are artificially added.
Some manufacturers will add broken glass materials during the production process to make the entire stone look very shiny, but this only changes the appearance and has no effect on the actual quality.
