Silestone

As an incredibly strong and resilient material, Silestone is a very popular choice for kitchen worktops. It is a compound made up of 90% natural quartz, adding to its strength and durability as well as heat resistance. This sets it apart from other kitchen worktop materials, and also makes it a popular choice for bathrooms, floors and wall cladding due to the minimum number of joints required.

Suitable for a range of environments, all Dekton colours are ultra-resilient to sunlight and will not fade from exposure over time. All of this has led it to become one of the most popular sintered stones in the UK.
