A message from our Corporate Plus Partner, Caesarstone.
In the brand new world of high-performance, sustainable work surfaces, Porcelain has taken centre stage. The fact that this relatively new work surface means beauty no longer comes at the expense of functionality, is allowing consumers to dream big in their renovation plans for both kitchens and bathrooms – two of the hardest-working rooms in the home.
Caesarstone Porcelain, while taking inspiration from natural stones such as marble and limestone - and even concrete - has a level of beauty and performance all of its own. While being more affordable than its natural counterpart, it is also completely non-porous and stain-resistant (with no need for sealing) - and will therefore retain its original beauty far longer.
Curves are now featuring prominently in both the kitchen and bathroom, gaining a vast fan base due to their majestic elegance and ability to introduce a graceful focal point to any space. Caesarstone reports its 12mm Porcelain is proving popular for these curved benchtops, not merely for its super slim profile, but also for its ability to emulate virtually any natural surface.
Caesarstone Porcelain has a collection of 22 designs available in the super elegant profile of 12mm, each of which carry a lifetime warranty.
Porcelain has quickly become a preferred surface-option due to its extremely hard-wearing and food-safety qualities. It is both scratch and stain-resistant, so users can chop directly on the surface if they wish. It can also withstand high temperatures so hot pans and trays can be placed directly on the surface without fear of scorching. And as the porcelain is non-porous, it is far easier to keep clean than natural stone – it requires just a wipe with a damp cloth. It is even resistant to staining from notoriously risky ingredients such as turmeric.
Crafted from natural raw ingredients such as clay, feldspar and natural oxides, Caesarstone Porcelain’s production process adheres to the brand’s ‘green waste’ reuse process, whereby up to 20% of its contents are the waste from the first stage of production and 100% of all water is recycled.
Available in a 12mm profile (with some designs also available in 20mm), each slab is a full
1600 x 3200mm, making the creation of sweeping expanses of joint-free surfaces a welcome reality. All slabs carry a lifetime warranty.
Caesarstone Porcelain is suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations, enabling an uninterrupted flow of aesthetics from one area to the other.
