Worktop Properties

Natural occurring quartz can be a little too brittle for our everyday kitchen uses because of it’s composition. The usual quartz worktops that are referred to in our society today are a combination of quartz mixed with a small amount of resin, usually between 5-7%, and a pigment to make the design. Artscut’s high-quality materials are then fused together under intense heat and pressure which forms beautiful, hardwearing worktops.

Natural quartz is an igneous rock with a composition of oxygen and silicon making it’s chemical formula is SiO2. After Feldspar, Quartz is the most abundant material within the earth’s crust. The transformation process from Silicone and Oxygen into Quartz is varied and that’s why we have so many different types. Amethyst, ametrine, rose quartz, carnelian, onyx, jasper, smoky quartz, agate, milky quartz and tiger’s eye are all examples.

Artscut White Shimmer is an extremely durable stone. As a result it is resistant to staining and scratching and is extremely easy to maintain. In addition, unlike natural stone or wood, quartz worktops do not need resealing. It is one of the most popular quartz brands on the market.
