In the application of kitchen countertops, engineered stone performs well:engineered stone countertops are not easily penetrated by oil stains and dirt, easy to clean, and keep the kitchen clean. Able to withstand daily kitchen operations such as cutting and smashing, not easy to damage.

If quartz dust is inhaled by workers for a long time, it will cause a serious occupational disease-silicosis. Silicosis is an irreversible lung disease, the main symptoms of which include difficulty breathing, coughing, fatigue, etc., and in severe cases, it may even lead to death.

Despite the high hardness of the quartz countertop, continuous direct cutting may cause fine scratches and wear. These scratches not only affect the appearance of the countertop, but can also become a place for bacteria and dirt to accumulate.

The temperature of boiling water is 100°C, which is lower than the heat resistance limit of quartz countertops. However, pouring boiling water directly on quartz countertops may cause cracks to expand, resin damage (the surface loses gloss or deforms), and color change.

To judge whether the countertop is quartz or marble, you can do it from the following 5 aspects: 1. Observe the texture and color, 2. Touch the surface texture, 3. Test hardness and scratch resistance, 4. Test stain resistance and acid resistance, 5. Observe the back of the countertop.
