Artificial Quartz Slab: Design Trends In The New Countertop Material

A fast-rising trend is the use of artificial quartz slab in interior decoration and almost all decorative countertop designs.  

It is popularly known for its good heat resistance, varying designs, its wide array of colours to choose from, and its scratch-free reputation. It can be wise to say it is a good pick for vanity and countertops. 

 

Quartz stone manufacturers grow rapidly and spread around the world. As of 2007, there are 28 quartz stone production lines in 14 countries and regions around the world. Moreover, the global quartz stone market has grown from tens of thousands of dollars per year in 1984 to the current annual market size of 3 billion US dollars. This is a rapid development process, particularly the Chinese quartz stone market.

 

Here are a few reasons why artificial quartz slabs have gained fresh popularity 

 

· Their scratch-free ability:

As mentioned earlier they are well known for their scratch-free ability, making maintenance much easier and making them stand the test of time when compared to other countertop materials.

 

· Their camouflaging ability:

This helps to depict style and mimic expensive stones making it more advantageous than others.  

 

· Their environmental protection

Compared with ordinary building materials full of formaldehyde, new type of quartz sand and important raw materials are pressed to make artificial quartz stone. The emergence of artificial quartz stone can also avoid the over-exploitation of natural stone, and the quality is much higher than that of ordinary decorative materials.

 

· Their non-porous feature:

The non-porous surface stops the breed of bacteria on the surface, providing a healthy environment. In addition, it is much easier to maintain and clean with a smooth surface whilst still giving its full aesthetic value.

 

The new trendy designs are another reason why they are so in demand these years

 

Some of such designs include:

 

· Lines and patterns:

Wood and stone are being incorporated into both commercial and residential spaces to give them an organic, calming vibe useful for both productivity and relaxation

 

· Quartz kitchens everywhere

As the range of patterns and colours of artificial quartz expands, kitchens designed with this durable non-porous material will keep gaining more and more popularity.

 

It is now trendy for kitchen slabs to mimic natural stones as against the solid colours that have previously covered them.

 

· Earthy, subtle finish/ natural stone:

This design is as timeless as it is trendy.

 

As opposed to more polished and shiny designs, earthy/stony designs are more in demand. Earthy/stone designs are made by finishing the slab with a diamond-tipped abrasive brush to create that special effect. 

 

Judging from the current development trend, customers who use quartz stone range from traditional wholesalers to real estate development companies to architectural decoration companies. More and more people join the trend of quartz stone consumption. It can be seen that the future development of quartz stone is considerable.
