Quartz

Quartz is an engineered stone surface available in a broad range of colours and patterns. It can suit homeowners who want a consistent or carefully controlled visual finish. The exact performance and care requirements depend on the product selected.

Granite

Granite is natural stone with individual mineral variation. It is often selected when the natural character of the slab is a central part of the kitchen design. Product-specific care and sealing guidance should be followed.

Marble

Marble is a natural stone known for its veining and luxurious appearance. Its visual character can make it especially important to consider maintenance expectations and the intended use of the kitchen before selection.

Compare the complete specification

Do not compare material names alone. Compare the actual slab, thickness, finish, edge profile, cut-outs, joins, templating and installation. A premium worktop is a fabricated product as well as a raw material.
