The Intro of Quartz Countertops

Quartz is an interesting material. It’s not “just” quartz. It’s actually a composite made of quartz, pigments, and resins. While it contains natural stone ,it’s not a naturally occurring slab, such as granite.
In the U.S. today, sales of quartz countertops have skyrocketed with the number of quartz countertops now approaching those of granite and marble. This is due, in part, to the fact that quartz surfaces are chemical, stain, chip, and crack resistant. Not only that, but quartz surfacing is non-porous. This meant that the surfacing never needs sealing, plus it’s also 99.9-percent bacteria-free.
If you like the look of quartz, you probably prefer materials that look “like new,” without imperfections. While granite and marble are beautiful, they do contain variations and imperfections. Some think this adds character. But others prefer the color and pattern consistency of quartz, which has essentially “engineered out” any sign of imperfection. This also makes quartz surfacing incredibly flat and smooth.
Along these lines, any seams present in quartz surfaces can be easily disguised. On the other hand, seams in marble and granite are typically far more visible.
Not only will quartz surfaces last a very long time (and look great while doing so) they require very little, if any, maintenance. Unlike granite or marble, they never need to be sealed or re-sealed year after year. Plus, cleaning is exceptionally easy, requiring only wiping with a damp cloth or paper towel. Tougher cleaning jobs might require the help of a mild cleanser or non-abrasive sponge.
While quartz countertops are exceptionally durable, note that they’re not indestructible. We suggest that you always use trivets, towels, or pads when using hot pots and pans. Quartz can resist very high temperatures, but quick changes in temps (known as thermal shock) can damage the surface.
Today, quartz is quickly becoming a “must have” countertop material. But the most important thing is to choose the material that you like best. In the end, it’s a personal choice. If you like the color-consistency offered by quartz and the low-maintenance nature of the surface, we can all but guarantee that you’ll enjoy a quartz countertop.

Quartz is the New Top Choice For Countertops

Once upon a time, granite was the first and last word in residential kitchen countertops. When homeowners fantasized about their dream kitchens, there was no doubt that granite countertops would be a part of it. With their timeless elegance and excellent resale value, it’s no wonder that granite ruled. That is, until now. According to the National Kitchen & Bath Association (NKBA) there is a new number-one for residential kitchen countertops and that material is quartz.
Though granite is still an incredibly popular (and excellent) choice for kitchen countertops, many are starting to recognize the appeal of quartz. A manmade surface, quartz is the first surface to give granite a run for its money. Over the past five years or so, more homeowners and designers have begun to realize the benefits of quartz surfaces and there has been a steady increase in the specification of quartz in kitchen and bath projects
Ease of Maintenance
Quartz surfaces do not require sealing, oiling or waxing. And because they are non-porous, they’re easier to clean. Bacteria can’t get inside, so it can’t proliferate.
Practicality
The high quartz content makes the material exceptionally tough and very durable. It’s also resistant to stains and scratches. And thanks to its durability, quartz surfaces can prove cost-effective in the long run.
Looks Like Natural Stone
Manufacturers produce quartz countertops in everything from solid colors to imitation granite and marble. In fact, some of the most beautiful quartz that we offer look so much like authentic marble that almost no one would suspect it isn’t the real thing.
Versatile
It comes in a wide range of colors, unlike natural stone, which is limited to the natural process through which it’s formed. Because it’s available in nearly any color of the rainbow and since it can be easily fabricated into virtually any shape or size, quartz countertops can fit practically any style of décor.

Quartz countertops are gaining momentum

Although granite has been a consumer favorite for countertops for a number of years, quartz countertops are gaining momentum. According to a 2017 Houzz study, granite was chosen 41% of the time and quartz 40%. This may be due in part to the ever-growing variety of designs, colors, and patterns coming on the market. Quartz countertops are also growing in popularity because today’s busy families prefer to avoid the maintenance needed with granite.
Quartz countertops do not need periodic re-sealing like some granite products do. Even though advances have provided for 15-year sealing for granite, the population at large still believes it must be done annually. This widespread, albeit incorrect, belief is spurring more interest in quartz countertops.
Another reason for the growing trend toward quartz countertops is the desire for lighter colors. A lot of granite is dark by comparison, and the neutral, light tones being offered by the quartz industry are more appealing to some homeowners. In fact, the look of marble is especially popular, and quartz countertops that mimic marble are one of the hottest products at the moment. Of course, quartz countertops are also available in darker colors if that is your preference.
If you are looking to improve your home and keeping with trends is important to you, going with quartz countertops is an ideal solution. It is easy to modernize your kitchen so that your home has increased value and marketability.Tsianfan industry has a team dedicated to providing you with the most cost effective solutions for design and manufacturing  sample boards,quartz stone sample case and other stone sample packing products.More info ,please click our website:stonepackingcase.com

Quartz Countertops are Growing in Popularity

Nowadays,quartz countertops are growing in popularity. Here are a few reasons why you may want to go with quartz countertops in your home.
One of the main reasons why you might want to consider quartz countertops is because they are virtually maintenance free. Because they have a completely nonporous surface, they do not stain. As a result, when something spills on your quartz countertops, you won’t have to panic.
In addition to their easy care, quartz countertops come in many different shades, including blue, red, aqua, and more. If you have a certain color in mind for your countertops, chances are you’ll be able to find the perfect quartz option.
Although quartz countertops are an investment, they will significantly add to the value of your home. This can be highly advantageous if you are interested in selling your home in the near future as many buyers look for high-end countertops as they go to showings.

Quartz Countertops Are the New Trend

Today, modern engineering can combine different types of rock to produce new products. Stone like composite quartz can make household items more functional and less expensive. Quartz countertops are becoming more popular as consumers see the range of their benefits.
How are Quartz Countertops Made?
Quartz is a natural rock, but modern countertops made of quartz are actually a composite of ground quartz, polymer resin, and pigment. Quartz countertops have been around for over 30 years, but they have recently become more affordable and versatile enough that consumers are snatching them up.
Strength and Guarantees
Although granite and quartz are strong, granite is natural, and quartz is inspected in a lab. There’s almost no way for a granite supplier to know what’s on the inside of a granite slab. There could be a natural crack or defect that prevents the granite from being as strong as other pieces. Quartz, however, can more easily be guaranteed because it was created in a lab.
Colors and Uniqueness
The other benefit of quartz is the number of colors that it comes in. The pigment is artificial, so far-out colors like the brightest purple to the darkest green are possible. If you have a specific wish for a color of quartz, you can create a custom type of quartz countertops to fit your needs.

How to Give Your Quartz Countertops the Right TLC

If you’ve chosen quartz countertops to add the crowning touch on your kitchen design, you know that they are durable, yet pricey. Since this is the case, you are committed to getting your money’s worth out of them, which means taking excellent care of them, so they can last for a lifetime. You may already know a few things about caring for your quartz countertops, such as cleaning spills immediately or using only gentle cleansers, but what are other some other maintenance tips?
When you are cleaning your quartz countertops, it is important to only use soft cloths. Doing so will allow the quartz to keep its shine. We mentioned that it is important that you use only gentle chemicals on your quartz countertops. Some of these include dish soap, Simple Green, Magic Eraser, denatured alcohol, Rug Doctor Cleaner, or Hope’s Surface Cleaner. Simply following these guidelines will go a long way toward keeping your quartz countertops in prime condition.
Now that we’ve covered some of the “dos” for keeping your quartz countertops looking fabulous, let’s cover some of the “don’ts.” Regardless of how much of a scientist you are at heart, it is important to reserve your scientific experiments for areas outside of the kitchen (unless you are playing with chemical reactions in cooking, of course). This is because harsh chemicals such as hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid can do damage to your countertops. It is also important to avoid exposing your countertops to oils, dyes, paint thinners, solvents, chlorinated solvents, or chemicals with a pH greater than 10. If you should happen to accidentally expose your quartz countertops to one of these damaging products, the best thing to do is to rinse the countertops with lots of water immediately. Finally, if you accidentally get nail polish or gum or similar materials on your countertops, the best thing to do is to let it dry, then gently scrape the substance off with a plastic scraper or putty knife, then proceed with cleaning as usual.
If you truly want to give your quartz countertops some TLC, keeping them shiny and new, you now have the knowledge that will allow you to achieve the goal.

7 Main Reasons Quartz Countertops are Conquering Your Kitchens

quartzGranite’s beauty and durability have made it a top choice in kitchen design for years, however quartz counter tops, a relative newcomer, are now taking the American market by storm. Why are home buyers, contractors and renovators, and even designers migrating over to this manmade countertop option?7 Main Reasons Quartz Countertops are Conquering Kitchens:
1,A match made in heaven.
Quartz countertops offer a wider variety of colors and looks, from those that mimic granite and other natural stones to designs that are more uniform in appearance – all of which can be easily color-matched to your design scheme.
2,No pain from stains.
Quartz countertops easily ward off stains such as juice, wine, and other oily and acidic substances that can effect granite if left to sit for too long. White counters – game on!
3,No fuss, no muss care.
Like granite, quartz’s non-porous surface is mold, mildew, and bacteria resistant, requiring only a soap and water wash.
4,The ability to go big in your home.
In keeping with today’s large kitchen island trend, oversized quartz slabs are far easier to come by than larger single pieces of natural granite, making the task of tackling expansive countertops far simpler – and less expensive. Seaming slabs together is also much easier, courtesy of quartz’s color matching capabilities.
5,Heat and scratch resistance.
Though quartz is not compatible with direct sunlight exposure, both countertop options offer similar levels of heat and scratch resistance.
6,Budget friendliness.
While lower grades of granite can be less expensive than quartz, when it comes to exotic granite slabs and other premium natural stones such as marble, quartz countertops typically offer more bang for the buck.
7,Mother Earth-approved.
Though quartz is manmade, it is Greenguard approved and can offer a more environmentally friendly alternative than granite, especially when compared to quarried stones which have been transported from far-off regions rather than nearby locales.

The differences between granite and quartz for countertops?

We are always getting asked What is the difference between granite and quartz for countertops?
Granite and quartz are both great choices for countertops, and come in many different patterns and dazzling colors. If you’re about to embark on a bathroom or kitchen remodel, hire an experienced countertop professional who offers granite and quartz installation services, as well as bathroom and kitchen design. Laminate stone sample board
Quartz Countertops
Quartz countertops are engineered products that are made with crushed quartz and resin—the ratio of quartz to resin varies among manufacturers, but is on average about 95% quartz to 5% resin. Quartz countertops are not porous, do not need to be sealed, and are stain and scratch resistant. These characteristics make quartz countertops easy to clean and maintain, and an unfavorable place for harmful food-related bacteria to colonize. Though quartz countertops are highly durable, they are not immune to damage. For example, repeated exposure to direct sunlight can cause quartz countertops to fade over time.
Granite Countertops
Granite is a natural product, mined in large slabs from quarries and shipped all over the world. It’s highly regarded by homeowners and interior designers, and known for embodying elegance and natural beauty. Since granite is porous, it needs to be sealed—and resealed every year—to protect it from water intrusion and damage.These countertops are extremely durable, but like all natural stones, granite is susceptible to staining, scratching, and chipping. With proper care, granite countertops can last for a lifetime. Board For Display Granite Tile
In conclusion, the better of the two is your personal preference. One customer may appreciate the natural veining and different movement found in granite slabs while another prefers the consistency that comes with quartz base surfaces. Both granite and quartz base surfaces will increase the beauty of your home as well as the value.Choosing to upgrade your countertops to a quartz base surface or granite will only benefit you in the long run.
