Natural or Engineered Stone: What's the Difference?

Description

When it comes to residential and commercial worktops, engineered stone (also known as engineered quartz) is stylish, non-porous, heat resistant, repairable, and can look and feel exactly like granite, marble or ceramic. But it costs less. So what’s the difference, and why else should you choose engineered stone over natural?

This presentation explains how natural stone compares with engineered stone. It compares quality, hardness, practicality and aesthetic appeal, as well as cost. As a manufactured product it also covers how it’s produced, the standards with which it must comply, and where to use it. Beautifully illustrated with countless examples it provides a must-have guide to natural versus engineered stone.
