How to Avoid Damage to Quartz Engineered Countertops in Daily Life
As a new type of decorative stone, artificial quartz stone entered the domestic market from abroad in the early 2000s. Over the past decade, its use has expanded from just countertops to a wide range of applications, including:
- Public buildings (hotels, restaurants, banks, hospitals, exhibition halls, laboratories)
- Home decor (kitchen countertops, washstands, video walls, flooring)
Engineered quartz countertops are widely appreciated for their outstanding performance, including:
✔ Wear resistance
✔ Pressure resistance
✔ High-temperature resistance
✔ Corrosion resistance
✔ Anti-permeability
✔ Eco-friendly & non-toxic
✔ Radiation-free
✔ Wide range of colors
Despite these advantages, proper care is essential to prevent damage and ensure longevity.
Tips to Prevent Damage to Quartz Engineered Countertops
Choose the Right Thickness
Quartz countertops typically come in thicknesses of 15mm, 18mm, and 20mm.
- For kitchen countertops, 15mm is recommended, but reinforcement pads should be added during installation.
- This helps prevent mid-section fractures caused by excessive force.
Use a Chopping Board
- Always use a chopping board instead of cutting directly on the countertop.
- This prevents surface scratches and reduces localized pressure, which can lead to cracks over time.
Handle with Care Despite Its Hardness
Many believe that quartz stone, with its Mohs hardness of 7.5, is nearly unbreakable. However, improper use can still cause fractures.
- Cracks often appear in the center of the countertop, where pressure is greatest or where force is unevenly distributed.
- To avoid damage, distribute weight evenly and avoid excessive force on one area.
Regular Maintenance is Essential
Even though quartz stone is highly durable, it still requires proper care and maintenance.
- Avoid dropping heavy objects.
- Do not expose the surface to extreme temperatures for prolonged periods.
- Clean regularly with mild detergent and a soft cloth.
Conclusion
Quartz engineered countertops are an excellent choice for both residential and commercial use due to their durability and aesthetic appeal. However, proper handling, thoughtful installation, and regular maintenance are key to preventing damage and ensuring long-term performance. By following these simple care tips, you can enjoy the beauty and functionality of your quartz countertop for years to come.
