How is it made?
Quartz surfaces are manufactured through a highly automated, yet strictly monitored process:
Feeding & Mixing:
Raw materials are inspected, then fed into mixers
and blended together.
Moulding:
This mixture is then poured into a mould in the form of standard slab sizes
Pressing:
The slab is then compacted by a special vacuum
And vibration process.
Curing:
These are moved to the curing kiln and heated to 90ºC for
30 minutes - giving all Quartz surfaces genuine stone properties.
Polishing:
Slabs are then gauged, calibrated and polished to ensure the highest quality
Checking:
Finally, the slabs pass through quality control and checked for impurities before being shipped to manufactures of products.
If you require specific information or help on our products & services or need samples please do not hesitate to contact us on 01257 253069.
Given their exceptional physical and mechanical properties, the regular maintenance of Quartz worktops only require cleaning with a neutral pH product/detergent.
Follow The instructions below
After using detergent, Rinse with clean water and then use a dry cloth to buff (no streaks).
For the removal of any remains or waste (e.g. oil and grease, wine, vinegar, lemon, fizzy drinks, coffee...) on the surface of Quartz, all that is required is to wipe with a cloth dipped in a neutral pH detergent. Rinse with water and buff with a dry with a clean cloth.
As an example, below are some solutions to common problems:
Food / everyday Stains/ Marks
dilute a small amount of detergent in water and rub the stain with a clean cloth, then rinse with water and buff with a clean dry cloth.
Loss of shine: Buff with a soft cloth or call us for information on products for your type of worktop.
Water lime stains: Pour white vinegar (or any weak diluted acid) onto the surface of the worktop and leave it to work for 1 minute. Rinse with water.
Silicon stains: Use a sharp blade and a little solvent (such as acetone or ethanol)
Hot Pans / Hot Items
Do not make a habit of placing very hot items on the Quartz surface (deep-fryers, Red Hot Pans etc.).
Do not use water-repellents or sealers to bring out the shine
Do not use stripping agents, caustic soda, degreasing products, or products with a pH over 10 or chlorine-based. If you use bleach or a solvent you must rinse with water and never leave them in permanent contact with the surface.
The surface of the material must not be polished, and this applies to floors and worktops.
