The Benefits of Man-Made Quartz Countertops for Your Home

If you are looking for stunning countertop material to use in your home, consider quartz. This type of countertop has quickly become the go-to for homeowners seeking to upgrade their living space. Natural stones like granite will always stand the test of time, but man-made quartz countertops are quickly gaining popularity due to their numerous benefits. In this blog, 5280 Stone will explore the benefits of man-made quartz and why homeowners should choose this material when redesigning their kitchens.

At 5280 Stone in Northern Colorado, our stone fabricators engineer materials to create our quartz countertops. Using a combination of crushed quartzite and resin, our man-made quartz has the strength of granite, but with the ability to customize it in a variety of patterns on colors to resemble marble.

Durability

One of the primary benefits of quartz countertops is their durability. Natural stone counters can be prone to chipping or cracking, while man-made quartz is resistant to nicks, scratches, and stains due to the mixture of quartzite, resin, and pigment. Additionally, this type of countertop is great for kitchens as they are highly resistant to bacterial growth. Discuss with an expert about the proper maintenance of man-made quartz countertops and improve the longevity of your counter.

Aesthetics

Our stone fabricators are highly experienced in achieving the overall aesthetic appeal each customer is looking for. With an extensive range of colors and patterns available, it’s easy to find quartz kitchen countertops that complement the room's overall aesthetic and design.

When man-made quartz is designed, its surface is made to mimic the look of natural stone. This makes this material nearly impossible to tell the difference. Since we engineer the material, we can design each countertop to fit specific spaces and unique shapes, such as a kitchen island.

Low Maintenance

Man-made quartz is incredibly low-maintenance, which is perfect for busy homeowners in Colorado that still want the look of a beautiful kitchen. Natural stone countertops require sealing, polishing, and reconditioning to maintain the shine, but quartz has limited upkeep.

5280 Stone recommends wiping down each counter daily with a damp cloth and a mild cleaning solution. By doing this low-maintenance routine your man-made quartz countertops will continue to look its best for years to come.

Eco-Friendly

Most homeowners in Colorado are looking for ways to improve the resources they use when building and innovating their homes. Quartz kitchen countertops offer an eco-friendly option because they are made from a combination of natural quartz stone and resin. This style of countertops requires fewer raw materials, which in turn reduces the carbon footprint of production. Moreover, because it is such a durable material, man-made quartz countertops have a longer lifespan so they won’t have to be replaced as often, minimizing the rate at which they are disposed of.
