DEKTON
Dekton is a sophisticated blend of the raw materials used to produce the very latest in glass and porcelain as the highest quality quartz work surfaces.
Ultra-compaction is responsible for the material’s mechanical properties. This level of compaction contributes significantly to the material’s low porosity, making it a low-maintenance, long-life product. Everything to do with Dekton is extraordinary.
In the development of Dekton, we firstly sinterize the raw materials using basic components to oversee the whole process and the characteristics of the particles used in the manufacturing process.
The process uses up to 16 different decorative techniques which allow three-dimensional design models and an endless array of aesthetic possibilities.

Benefits of a Quartz Kitchen Worktop
Quartz worktops have become a popular choice for modern kitchens due to their durability, aesthetics, and low maintenance. Here are the key advantages of choosing quartz for your kitchen worktop:
Durability and Strength
Quartz is an engineered stone made from natural quartz crystals combined with resins and pigments.
It is highly durable and resistant to chips, cracks, and scratches, making it perfect for high-traffic kitchen areas.
Stronger than natural stones like granite and marble.
Non-Porous and Stain Resistant
Unlike natural stone, quartz is non-porous, meaning it won’t absorb liquids such as water, oil, or wine.
This prevents staining and bacterial growth, making it one of the most hygienic surfaces for food preparation.
Low Maintenance
Requires minimal upkeep—no need for sealing or polishing like granite or marble.
A simple wipe with soap and water is enough to keep it looking pristine.
Wide Range of Colors and Designs
Available in various colors, patterns, and finishes to match any kitchen style.
Can mimic the look of natural stones like marble but without the high maintenance.
Heat and Scratch Resistance
Quartz can withstand moderate heat, making it suitable for kitchens.
However, it’s best to use trivets or heat pads to prevent damage from extreme temperatures.
Uniform Appearance
Because it’s engineered, quartz surfaces have a consistent pattern and color, unlike natural stone, which may have unpredictable veining.
This makes it a great choice for modern and sleek kitchen designs.
Environmentally Friendly Option
Many quartz brands use recycled materials in production, making it an eco-conscious choice.
Long-Term Investment
Although quartz worktops can be more expensive than laminate or wood, their durability and low maintenance make them a cost-effective investment over time.
Adds value to your home due to its premium look and longevity.
A quartz kitchen worktop is an excellent choice for homeowners looking for a durable, stylish, and low-maintenance surface. With its stain resistance, variety of colors, and strength, it’s a practical and elegant addition to any kitchen.
