Sintered Stone FAQs


Yes, sintered stone is a very good choice for kitchen countertops, thanks to its many advantages:

  • Highly durable: It’s resistant to scratches, heat, stains, and chips and cracks better than some other countertop materials. You can chop, cut, and place hot pans directly on the surface without worry.
  • Non-porous and hygienic: Sintered stone doesn’t absorb liquids, making it stain resistant and easy to clean, which is ideal for a kitchen environment where spills and hygiene are important.
  • Low maintenance: Daily cleaning is simple with just soap and water.
  • Wide variety of design options: With a vast array of colors, patterns, and finishes available, you can find sintered stone to match any kitchen design style.

Here are some things to consider when deciding if sintered stone is right for you:

  • Cost: Sintered stone can be more expensive than some traditional countertop materials like laminate.
  • Weight: Due to its density, it can be heavy and require reinforced cabinets for support.
  • Seams: Seams may be more noticeable than in natural stone because of the uniformity of the material.

Sintered stone is manufactured using a process that mimics the natural formation of stone deep within the Earth’s crust. Here’s a simplified breakdown:

  1. Selection: Natural minerals and stone particles are carefully chosen for quality, color, and texture.
  2. Mixing: The chosen materials are precisely combined.
  3. Pressing: The mixture is subjected to extreme pressure.
  4. Heating: The mixture is then heated to very high temperatures.

This intense heat and pressure cause the minerals to fuse together, forming a solid and ultra-compact slab.

Sintered stone is incredibly strong and resistant to scratches, chips, and cracks. It’s also highly heat resistant and won’t be easily damaged by hot pots or pans. This makes it a great choice for busy kitchens and high-traffic areas.

Absolutely! The non-porous surface of sintered stone repels stains and liquids, making it very easy to clean. Routine cleaning can be done with just mild soap and water. It’s also resistant to most household chemicals and doesn’t require sealing like some other natural stone materials.

Both sintered stone and quartz offer excellent durability and ease of maintenance. However, sintered stone may have a slight edge in terms of heat resistance. Additionally, sintered stone comes in larger format slabs, allowing for a more seamless look with fewer seams for larger countertops.

The biggest drawback of sintered stone is its cost. It can be more expensive than other countertop materials like quartz or granite. Additionally, while highly durable, it can still chip or crack under extreme impact, so care should be taken to avoid heavy objects falling on the surface.

Yes! Sintered stone’s resistance to UV rays, freezing temperatures, and harsh weather conditions makes it a great choice for outdoor applications like countertops, patios, or cladding.
