Calacatta Quartzite - Quartzite

Nature's careful curation extends to the realm of semi-precious grains, with a vast palette of quartz hues at its disposal. These grains are skillfully melded, transforming ordinary sand and sandstone into a cohesive, resilient texture – a harmonious blend of gentleness and fiery strength, interlocking seamlessly to yield unrivaled durability, hardness, and minimal porosity, making it a versatile choice for diverse applications.

PETROGENESIS

Emerging as a product of metamorphism, this stone undergoes a remarkable transformation from its sandstone origins, initially composed of quartz and feldspar – two ubiquitous elements in the Earth's crust. This metamorphic journey unfolds amidst the intense pressures and temperatures accompanying the formation of lofty mountain ranges, resulting in the creation of quartzite, a dense, polishable, and impressively resistant stone.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

With its notable resistance to abrasion, this material boasts an exceptional level of density. It stands unwavering when exposed to acidic foods, making it the preferred selection for countertops, particularly for those seeking an alternative to conventional granite surfaces.

TECHNICAL PERFORMANCE:

Abrasion Resistance: Exceptional

Stain Resistance: Adequate

Chemical Sensitivity: Minimal

Frost and Heat Resistant: Outstanding

UV Resistant: Exceptional

Nature's artistry, woven into the fabric of this stone, elevates it to a class of its own, where endurance meets elegance.
