What is quartz and are there any benefits to using a manufactured material such as the quartz for countertops?
Quartz countertops are manufactured and sold in slabs composed of 93% quartz stone and 7% resin. The main advantages to quartz are its antibacterial nature and consistency in color. While granite as a product of nature may vary in color and movement from sample to installation, quartz countertops will match the sample exactly.
