What is Quartz?

Quartz is a very durable manmade product. Quartz countertops are a form of engineered stone made from ground-up particles of quartz bound together with resins. The vibro-compression vacuum technology used by Bretonstone Technology is a patented process created by the Breton company in northeast Italy. The process consists of blending pulverized natural stone aggregate with a mix of polymers, removing the air, and then heating and shaping the material into slabs that have the hardness and appearance of natural stone.

Quartz countertops are not made of solid quartz, but a mix of 90 percent crushed granite, marble, natural stone, quartz, crystals and/or recycled industrial waste, such as ceramic, silica, glass, and mirrors. The other 10 percent is a polymeric or cement-based binder that binds all the material. The mix of these materials gives quartz countertops the look and feel of stone.
