Engineered stone manufactured by imitating the metamorphic change rocks suffer across thousands of years in an industrial environment. It results in a new and revolutionary range of products with zero porosity. Not only they look great but you can also avail these in 10mm, 12mm,20mm and 30mm thicknesses. Environmental Impact – Granite is durable and recyclable, but it requires large amounts of energy for transport, and mining is very resource intensive. Pros – While Engineered stone are expensive than many countertop materials, it is quite a bit more expensive than laminate and concrete. Cons – Expensive, heavy, needs annual resealing, ubiquitous, “granite fatigue”.Expensive, heavy, needs annual resealing, ubiquitous, “granite fatigue”. Brand Partner: 1. Caesarstone 2. Silestone 3.
