Choosing the right worktop has a huge impact not only on the visual appeal of your kitchen but also on its long-term durability. Among the many options available, Caesarstone quartz worktops have emerged as a preferred choice for homeowners, interior designers and architects alike. But what makes Caesarstone so popular? From exceptional quality to unrivalled beauty, here’s why Caesarstone quartz worktops continue to be the gold standard in kitchen design.
Superior quality and durability
One of the main reasons behind the popularity of Caesarstone quartz is its superior quality. Made from up to 90% natural quartz, one of the hardest minerals on earth, Caesarstone worktops offer exceptional strength and resilience.
Unlike natural stone surfaces such as granite or marble, quartz worktops are non-porous, making them resistant to stains, scratches and cracks. This durability ensures your worktop maintains its flawless appearance for years to come, even in the busiest of kitchens.
Clean and hygienic
Unlike natural stone surfaces that require regular sealing, Caesarstone quartz worktops are incredibly easy to keep clean. Their non-porous nature means that spills, oils and liquids don’t seep into the surface – instead, a simple wipe with mild soap and water is enough to keep your kitchen worktop looking pristine.
The non-porous quality also means that quartz worktops inhibit the growth of bacteria, mould and mildew. Unlike wooden or stone surfaces, the smooth finish on a Caesarstone quartz surface eliminates areas where bacteria could grow, making them a particularly sanitary and attractive choice for food prep areas.
Being able to keep Caesarstone quartz so clean so easily is one of the many reasons why it’s an ideal choice for so many busy households.
Timeless elegance and design versatility
Whether you prefer the classic elegance of marble-inspired designs like 5101 Empira Black, the raw beauty of industrial finishes found in 4023 Topus Concrete or the modern sophistication of solid colours such as 1141 Pure White or 3100 Jet Black, Caesarstone offers an extensive range of designs to suit any style. 6313 Turbine Grey is a nuanced palette of grey stone swirls, while 5212 Taj Royale is a silky interplay of warm, earthy hues.
Here at Caesarstone, our meticulous attention to detail and advanced engineering techniques allow for intricate veining, subtle textures and a depth of colour that provide a natural stone aesthetic without its maintenance challenges.
This Notting Hill art deco style kitchen used 4023 Topus Concrete and when Kasia Piorko, Designer and Founder of Kate Feather Kitchens presented the sample tile to their client, “they immediately fell in love with it. The blush tones, rough texture and mottled pattern totally won them over. Topus Concrete works exceptionally well with the colour palette of the scheme and complements the overall ambience of the design.”
Heat, stain and scratch resistance
Our quartz worktops can stand up to the daily demands that come with food preparation and cooking, including heat, stains and scratches! A quartz worktop from Caesarstone has heat-resistant properties that make it an excellent surface for kitchens – although we recommend you still use trivets to protect against extreme temperatures.
Also, the worktops’ resistance to stains and scratches means that accidental spills or knife marks won’t compromise the beauty of the surface, ensuring that a Caesarstone worktop remains as impressive as the day it was installed.
Sustainability and eco-conscious manufacturing
We are committed to responsible manufacturing and, as part of this, we make sure our worktops are produced with minimal environmental impact. We follow stringent sustainability practices, including energy-efficient production processes, responsible quartz sourcing and the use of recycled materials where possible, meaning you can enjoy luxury and durability without compromising on sustainability.
Alternatives to quartz
While quartz certainly has many benefits, our other surfaces also bear mentioning as they too are incredibly durable, impermeable, easy to maintain and resistant to heat, stains and scratches, as well as available in a number of beautiful designs.
Our mineral surfaces are the result of our pioneering expertise, advanced technology and a unique blend of materials, culminating in a range of worktops that offer sustainability alongside durability. From the warm white and earthy amber of 5113 Solenna to the cool glimmering grey of 5310 Brillianza and the rich and luxurious 5100 Vanilla Noir with its ebony base, our mineral surfaces offer something for everyone.
The latest addition to our range, ICON, builds on 38 years of expertise and excellence, with a huge focus on environmentalism and everyday performance. Made from ~80% recycled materials and the latest manufacturing technologies, ICON is the future of fusion surfaces. 4044 Airy Concrete swirls with clouds of grey and white flashes, while 4011 Cloudburst Concrete has a solid creamy base billowed by pure white, and 5110 Alpine Mist has a cool grey background with delicate white veins.
