Engineered
Stone is a uniquely
manufactured quartz surface.
Unlike granite, engineered
stones are composed of 93%
pure natural quartz crystals.
With a diamond-like hardness,
they offer stain and scratch
resilience greater than any
comparable product on the
market. This unique combination
allows these stone surfaces
to be NSF (National Sanitation
Foundation) approved, which
makes them ideal for commercial
and residential applications.
Technistone®
is made using a combination
of 93 % Quartz, Quartz Silica,
Granite or Recycled Mirror*,
combined with 7 % resin, colors
and binders. This mixture
is pressed into 52”
X 120” sheets using
a unique and proprietary vibration-vacuum-compression
process. The sheets are then
heat treated, cooled, ground
(calibrated) and polished
to a high gloss shine. Each
sheet is then individually
inspected under bright lighting
for any flaws or possible
defects. Our quality control
standards are your assurance
that Technistone is the finest
material available for your
Quartz surfacing needs.
Technistone
slabs are available in 52"
x 120" x (3/4" or 1 1/8" thick)
and in tile 3/8" X 12" x 12"
, 16" x 16" or 24" x 24".
3/4" Technistone tile pavers
are available by special order
only.
Technistone’s 20 Techni-Colors®
provide you with an exceptional
variety of rich colors and
textures allowing you to create
the perfect environment and
effect in all of your residential
and commercial design needs.
Technistone® was
developed specifically for
the Kitchen and Bath industry
with today’s sophisticated
homeowners desires and needs
in mind. Technistone engineered
stone combines the desirable
characteristics of both solid
surface products such as Corian®
with natural stone products
such as Granite and Marble.
In bringing together these
qualities, Technistone eliminates
the weaknesses of both. Technistone
truly is the “next generation”
in solid surface and stone
surfacing.
Unlike Granite, Technistone®
is much stronger having a
flexural strength of over
4 times that of natural stone.
Technistone is 99.9% solid;
zero porosity means no place
for dangerous bacteria or
microorganisms such as salmonella
to grow and accumulate. Oil,
sodas, wine, water and common
household chemicals have no
effect on Technistone. Technistone
is literally a “Super-natural
stone”. Unlike plastic
based Solid Surface materials
like Corian®, Technistone
is highly scratch and heat
resistant. Technistone comes
standard with an easy to maintain
high gloss finish not possible
with solid surface.
Technistone® engineered
stone is the most versatile,
durable and beautiful design
surface available today. Technistone
is clearly the premiere choice
for all your design surfacing
needs.
Technistone™
is durable and resilient and
will provide you with many
years of trouble free use.
Technistone is 99.9% solid
and nearly impossible to stain.
Residue on the surface of
Technistone appearing as stains
is only topical. These topical
stains are easily removed
with a white Scotch-Brite
scrubber and any one of many
common household cleaners
available today including
Mr. Clean, 409, Simple Green,
Fantastic etc.
Technistone™
is heat resistant and under
normal cooking conditions
is not affected. Extreme heat
can affect the beauty of any
Quartz surface. Technistone
requires the use of trivets
for roasting pans, skillets,
soup / stewing pots and all
electric countertop cooking
devices.
