When Marcello Toncelli invented quartz in the 1960s, his motto was to find a full-proof solution to the scratching, staining, etching, and mildew attacks homeowners faced with their natural stone countertops. Crafted into a dense, non-porous material, this man-made marvel quickly made its way into kitchens and living rooms of modern homes, winning over homeowners with its durability and low-maintenance appeal.
What about the looks? Quartz designs are primarily inspired by premium natural stones, especially marble. However, thick and robotic veins in first-grade quartz are no longer relevant. The best thing about engineered stones is that there is always room for upgrades, thanks to continuous manufacturing innovations. The innovation of through-body 3D quartz has enabled a remarkable shift in the stone industry, ensuring a seamless aesthetic transition. Let us guide you through our exclusive collection of industry-leading 3D quartz colors. Before that, let us first clarify for you…
What is 3D Quartz? Why Should You Go for It?
3D quartz features three-dimensional patterns that appear more layered and organic, similar to natural surfaces. The key advantage of these new stones is their through-body design, meaning the pattern on the surface follows through the back of the stone. Designs are printed on flat surfaces of other general quartz, requiring fabricators to perform miter cuts to create a seamless pattern flow along the edges of countertops. Miter cuts increase the overall installation cost.
In contrast, these new-edge three-dimensional quartz surfaces, with a 3 cm thickness, maintain pattern continuity across the width, creating a homogenous appearance and eliminating the need for additional adjustments. Moreover, their Jumbo and Super Jumbo sizes make them ideal for large-scale applications. What more could you ask for?
Without further delay, let’s jump into the colors.
