kitchen countertop - MMA-3107

Artifical quartz stone slab used for kitchen countertop as follows :

• Quartz Kitchen Countertop color blotches are intended and integrated into many designs to enhance the natural beauty. Samples are small select cuts from a slab; they do not exhibit all the characteristics of a design and therefore are not fully representative of what will be installed. Product will not be replaced due to these variations.
• Quartz kitchen countertop is durable and more resistant to surface damage than other stone. However, all stone can be damaged by force and no stone is chip-proof. Objects hitting edges particularly at sinks or dishwashers may cause chips. Though a minor knife slip will dull the knife and not harm quartz kitchen countertop, no stone surface is scratch-proof. Surface markings are more visible on monotone designs than multi-colored surfaces.
• Quartz kitchen countertopis not a seamless product, seams are visible. Where there are seams the product pattern and shade can change.
• Natural stone surfaces can be damaged by sudden and/or rapid change of temperature especially near the edges, as well as direct and/or sustained heating of the top.Quartz kitchen countertopmay not withstand the direct transfer of heat from pots and pans and other cooking units such as electric frying pans and griddles, and some crock-pots and roaster ovens and heat lamps. Therefore, the use of a hot pad or trivet is always recommended to prevent heating the product.
• Quartz kitchen countertop is not a structural support material. 2cm and 3cm quartz kitchen countertop thicknesses are for countertops and must be supported. 1cm thicknesses are for surface finishes such as walls, tub and shower surrounds and fireplaces; horizontal applications such as a tub deck must be completely supported as well.
• Semi-polished finishes (1cm) will not shine and will soil and appear to stain from soiling. Rosslyn™, Minera™ and Parys™ designs are not available in 1cm thickness
