Engineered Quartz

The quartz that is installed in homes today is actually engineered quartz. It's the same great natural stone, just better. Engineered quartz is made up of 93% natural, ground up quartz. The other 7% is a polymer resin, used to make these countertops extra hard. The process of adding a polymer resin is done to extend the countertop's life and make it more durable. With engineered quartz, you get natural beauty, mixed with a man-made durability that is unmatched. Engineered quartz is extremely scratch resistant and never needs sealed.
