Natural stone, such as marble, limestone and granite are the pricier benchtop materials available, which is a statement in itself. Engineered stone is a combination of quartz and resin, and it's a brilliant alternative to natural stone, as it's easier to maintain and cost-effective.
Quartz-based stone is a fabricated, man-made stone that is an incredibly durable, functional and attractive product. It has multiple uses — you can use it in benchtops, splashback showers, interior wall cladding, vanities and so much more.

Granite benchtops will offer your kitchen with ageless durability.

The edge profile and thickness of your stone benchtop can be used to harmonise the specific style or design of the particular era you're attempting to achieve. When designing your stone benchtop, an essential element to consider is the edge profile. The edge profile is a vital feature that you need to discuss with your kitchen designer and stonemason before your kitchen cupboards are being made. For instance, a customer designing a “French Provincial” should go for a detailed edge profile like Waterfall. Nonetheless, if a customer chooses a modern design then it will suit to a less detailed edge profile, such as 20 mm/40 mm square — pencil round top/ pencil round top & bottom.
Different edge profiles are accessible that can be implemented with stone benchtop. We provide the most sought-after modern edge profiles that include Aris, Pencil Round Top and Pencil Round Top & Bottom.

Limestone and travertine are amongst the most affordable natural stone benchtop options. With a little added investment for regular maintenance, resealing and care, limestone is a smart choice for anyone who desires for an elegant, durable and lasting benchtop.
Both natural stone such as granite and engineered stone are robust, durable and best-suited for kitchen benchtop use. If you're selecting granite, then go with black or any other darker colour shades, as it will provide a better look and finish and more durability. On the other hand, if you're selecting an engineered stone, it is best to stick with lighter shades like cream and whites.
Engineered stone does not require sealing because it comes with a resin polymer base; thus, sealants would not pierce the surface, so they turn out to be unproductive.
Engineered stone also referred to as quartz, isn't found naturally, but manufactured from quartz crystals held together with a resin binder. It helps to create diverse patterns and colour shades so you can choose the best one that suits your kitchen benchtop.

Quartz stone benchtop is by far the easiest to care and maintain. Quartz stone engineered using ground stone and resin, so it does not need regular sealing which most of the marble and granite, natural stone benchtops require. Quartz being non-porous material does not stain easily.
