QUARTZITE COUNTERTOPS

Quartzite is a hard, non-foliated metamorphic rock which was originally pure quartz sandstone. Sandstone is converted into quartzite through heating and pressure usually related to tectonic compression within orogenic belts.



A quartzite countertop begins as sandstone, which under a natural process of heat and pressure is fused with sparkly quartz crystals to form quartzite. Quartzite typically comes in shades of white or light grey.


Quartzite looks like marble and performs like granite.


CARE GUIDE: 


Swipe daily with a damp cloth  and a drop or two of mild detergent. Another option is to wet down a micro cloth and simply dust off the stone. However, do not use abrasives or cleaners with vinegar or citrus base.


Use a hot pad or trivet under very hot pots or pans when placing them on the countertops. Use a coaster or placemat for drinks and plates to prevent accidental spills on the quartzite.


Quartzite should be sealed at least annually, which will prevent stains and keep counters looking shiny and new for many years to come.
