Engineered Stone FAQs

Questions we hear about engineered stone.

What is engineered stone?

Engineered stone is a manufactured surface made mostly from natural quartz combined with resins. The result is consistent colour, high durability and low maintenance.

Can I put hot pots straight onto engineered stone?

It's best not to. The resin that binds the quartz can be damaged by sudden, high heat, so use a trivet or board for hot pots and trays.

Does engineered stone need sealing?

No. It's non-porous, so it doesn't need sealing and is easy to wipe clean. That's a big part of why it's so low-maintenance.
