Countertops: Antibacterial and easy to maintain, choose quartz

Several options come to mind when it’s time to choose the ideal material for our kitchen or bathroom countertops. Durable? Aesthetic? Or antibacterial? Quartz offers all of these advantages.

Quartz is a natural stone, crushed in a factory where 3% to 5% resin is added to create a composite material that is resistant, waterproof, and aesthetic.

The ideal choice for your kitchen and bathroom countertops, where this material is essential due to its antibacterial properties: it is hygienic, waterproof to grease, and resistant to bacteria.

Quartz also resists scratches and stains and is easy to clean—just a damp cloth and some soapy water are enough. In short, the material has several advantages that make it the right product for your countertops:

– Easy to maintain
– Resistant to stains and scratches
– Antibacterial and hygienic
– Waterproof
– Available in various colors

However, quartz can suffer damage from extreme temperature changes, whether over a long period or suddenly. Moving heavy objects across the material can also damage its surface.

Certain chemicals like dyes, oil-based soaps, thinners, solvents, and stains should be avoided when cleaning a quartz countertop.
