Silestone

Silestone is the world leader in quartz surfaces with worldwide brand representation. Silestone has the feel and weight of natural stone but is composed of at least 90% inorganic components (essentially natural quartz and silicone). Silestone can be used in the creation of kitchen worktops, tiling and for commercial projects due to its recognised durability and its colour consistency which is incomparable to any other natural stone.  Silestone is available in in three different thicknesses: 12, 20 and 30mm.
