Silestone

Home Products Engineered Stones Silestone

Silestone countertops are products made of quartz agglomerate produced in Spain by Cosentino. This material has long gained popularity all over the world and remains the leader in Europe and North America. Silestone agglomerate is present in more than 50 countries around the world. Silestone quartz agglomerate consists of 90-93% natural quartz chips and 7-10% natural polyester resins and dyes. The colors and textures imitate natural stone, but the hardness of quartz makes Silestone worktops strong and durable, as quartz is one of the hardest rocks in the world.

What is silestone?

Silestone countertops pros

Recently, more and more consumers prefer quartz stone to natural stone. This is due to its strength and practicality, which are due to its composition and production technology. Moreover, given that the Silestone agglomerate production technology is carried out under vacuum, all the air is pumped out of the material, as a result of which the material has practically no pores, which deprives Silestone quartz countertops of those disadvantages that are inherent in natural stone countertops, namely:

  • excellent hardness – Silestone agglomerate is so hard that it is not afraid of any mechanical stress from sharp and heavy objects. On the surface of products made of it, even if they are installed in a working room in the kitchen, where they are constantly in use, chips, scratches, cracks do not remain on their surfaces, and polishing does not even disappear.
  • high density – Silestone agglomerate countertops have almost zero porosity, they generally do not absorb any moisture, odors, liquids, fats or other soiling substances that leave behind stains if spilled substances are not removed in time.
  • resistant composition – countertops made of this quartz stone do not contain components that would be destroyed by detergents or other household chemicals for cleaning surfaces in bathrooms and kitchens;
  • economical in operation – Silestone quartz agglomerate countertops do not require any protective agents for periodic impregnation of the surface of products, as marble does, and also does not require any special cleaning agents with a neutral pH balance. The hardness and absence of such porosity of Silestone agglomerate as in natural stone types makes this material so unpretentious in maintenance that even after several years there is no need to order a repolishing of products from it.

If the decision to buy Silestone quartz countertops is made, this is a good choice. The assortment of colors of the Silestone agglomerate manufacturer allows you to make a tabletop that will fit into any interior design, decorating it with its luxurious appearance.

It’s agreeably unquestionable that this natural stone type makes top-quality kitchen countertops. The material is of good quality and can’t break easily. Also, the polished finish is sure to give your counter a sparkling look.

It exhibits high levels of impact resistance and would not succumb to even the most severe of all scratch marks in a typically busy kitchen. With proper maintenance and attention, therefore, a made using this material will withstand the test of time and maintain its grandeur.

FAQ

What is the difference between quartz and Silestone?

Quartz and Silestone are both types of engineered stone countertops that are made from a mixture of quartz, resins, and pigments. However, there are some key differences between the two materials.

  • Composition: Silestone is made with a higher percentage of quartz than most other quartz countertops, at 94%. This makes it a more durable and stain-resistant material. Quartz countertops typically have a quartz content of 90% or less.
  • Color and pattern options: Silestone offers a wider variety of colors and patterns than most other quartz countertops. This is because it is made with a patented micro-crystal technology that allows for more intricate designs. Quartz countertops typically have a more limited range of colors and patterns.
  • Price: Silestone is typically more expensive than quartz countertops. This is due to its higher quartz content and wider range of color and pattern options. Quartz countertops are typically more affordable.

Overall, Silestone is a more durable, stain-resistant, and versatile material than quartz countertops. However, it is also more expensive. If you are looking for a high-quality countertop that is easy to maintain and has a wide range of color and pattern options, Silestone is a good option. However, if you are on a budget, quartz countertops are a more affordable choice.

Here is a table summarizing the key differences between quartz and Silestone:

Feature Quartz Silestone
Quartz content 90% or less 94%
Color and pattern options Limited Wide variety
Price More affordable More expensive
Durability Durable Very durable
Stain resistance Stain-resistant Very stain-resistant
Versatile Versatile Very versatile

Ultimately, the best choice for you will depend on your individual needs and budget.

Is Silestone less expensive than granite?

No, Silestone is typically more expensive than granite. The average cost of Silestone countertops is $40 to $100 per square foot, while the average cost of granite countertops is $30 to $90 per square foot. However, the price of both materials can vary depending on the quality, color, and pattern of the stone.

Here is a table comparing the average cost of Silestone and granite countertops:

Material Average cost per square foot
Silestone $40 to $100
Granite $30 to $90

As you can see, Silestone is typically more expensive than granite. However, there are some factors that can make granite more expensive than Silestone. For example, if you choose a rare or exotic type of granite, it will be more expensive than a common type of Silestone.

Ultimately, the best way to determine which material is more expensive for your specific project is to get quotes from a few different countertop companies.

Is Silestone worth the money?

Whether Silestone is worth the money depends on your individual needs and budget. Here are some factors to consider when making your decision:

  • Durability: Silestone is a very durable material that is resistant to scratches, stains, and heat. This makes it a good choice for high-traffic areas, such as kitchens and bathrooms.
  • Stain resistance: Silestone is also very stain-resistant. This means that you can easily clean up spills and messes without worrying about them staining the countertop.
  • Color and pattern options: Silestone offers a wide variety of colors and patterns to choose from. This allows you to find a countertop that matches your style and décor.
  • Price: Silestone is typically more expensive than other types of countertops, such as quartz and granite. However, it is important to factor in the durability and stain resistance of Silestone when considering the overall cost of the countertop.

If you are looking for a durable, stain-resistant, and versatile countertop with a wide range of color and pattern options, Silestone is a good option. However, if you are on a budget, there are other types of countertops that may be a better fit for you.

Here is a summary of the pros and cons of Silestone countertops:

Pros:

  • Durable
  • Stain-resistant
  • Wide range of colors and patterns
  • Easy to maintain
  • Long warranty

Cons:

  • More expensive than other types of countertops
  • Can be difficult to find a qualified installer
  • Not as natural-looking as some other types of countertops

Ultimately, the decision of whether or not Silestone is worth the money is up to you. Consider your individual needs and budget carefully before making a decision.

Is Silestone a real quartz?

Yes, Silestone is a real quartz. It is a type of engineered stone that is made from 94% quartz, which is a hard mineral. The remaining 6% of Silestone is made up of resins, pigments, and other materials that bind the quartz together and give it its color and pattern.

Silestone is a very durable and stain-resistant material that is a good choice for countertops in high-traffic areas. It is also easy to maintain and can be cleaned with regular soap and water.

If you are looking for a durable, stain-resistant, and versatile countertop, Silestone is a good option. It is more expensive than some other types of countertops, but it is worth the investment for its durability and performance.

Here are some of the benefits of using Silestone countertops:

  • Durability: Silestone is a very durable material that is resistant to scratches, stains, and heat. This makes it a good choice for high-traffic areas, such as kitchens and bathrooms.
  • Stain resistance: Silestone is also very stain-resistant. This means that you can easily clean up spills and messes without worrying about them staining the countertop.

  • Long warranty: Silestone comes with a long warranty, which protects you against defects in the material.

If you are considering Silestone countertops for your home, I recommend getting quotes from a few different countertop companies. This will help you compare prices and find the best deal.
