USES:
Sintered stone is popular for countertops, but also is a great solution for wall and floor surfaces, in both indoor and outdoor applications.
Environmental
We believe when the building industry sources and manufactures building materials with sustainability in mind, we all live in a healthier world, and we want to do our part. Sintered stone is ecologically friendly, and can be made from recycled materials. It does not contain any VOCs, and is better than its non eco-friendly counterparts.
Formats
This sintered stone is available is three large formats:
- 102″ x 48″
- 126″ x 60″
- 142″ x 48″
We can also cut and offer our sintered stone in tile formats.
Color Range
This sintered stone resembles calacatta marble with great coloring. It displays the typical creamy colors of gray, tan, white and creams, along with bolder veining of dark browns, blacks, reds, and oranges.
Visual Pattern:
This calacatta sintered stone has the visual pattern variation seen in nature. It is glamorous with generous angled movement.
For countertops, carefully selecting the right pattern on the slab for your kitchen or bathroom is needed to achieve the best look.
Texture and Finish:
Sintered stone is a hard material, so it can be finished with a variety of textures. However, what makes this particular product unique is having a synthetic stone looking just like gray travertine, with a rough, texture finish previously only found in nature. Therefore, we recommend this product with:
- a rustic finish with a rough texture
The texture of this sintered stone can also be refined with a smooth surface, so we also offer it with:
- a satin finish
- a silk finish
- a polished finish
The right finish will depend on the specific look you are going for in your project.
