Popular Questions
The difference between natural stone countertops and engineered stone worktops lies primarily in their composition and production process.
Natural stone countertops, such as granite or marble, are quarried from the earth in large blocks, then cut into slabs and polished to create finished surfaces. These countertops are made entirely of natural stone, which means each slab is unique in color, pattern, and veining. Natural stone countertops offer a timeless and luxurious look, with durability and resistance to heat and scratches.
On the other hand, engineered stone worktops, commonly known as quartz countertops, are made from a blend of natural quartz crystals and resin binders. This mixture is then formed into slabs and cured under high heat and pressure to create a solid surface. Engineered stone countertops are engineered to be uniform in color and pattern, with a wide range of options available to mimic the look of natural stone or achieve custom designs.
Stones can be finished in polished, honed, or leathered styles.
Honed finish offers a matte, low-sheen appearance, reducing reflections and making maintenance easy.
Polished surfaces are smooth, highlighting the vibrant colors and intricate grains of natural stone.
Leathered finish enhances the stone’s natural movement and texture, similarly reducing reflection like the honed finish.
