Choosing a material can make or break a project in the interior design industry, especially when designing kitchens. Quartz countertops are now the preferred material of designers both for residential and commercial projects because they provide more than just the right aesthetic - they perform exceptionally well, can adapt to any design concept, and are highly customizable. In our almost decade of experience within the stone industry, Xiamen Nishi Group Co., Ltd has experienced the rise of quartz to designer staple status, from our production plant to countertops in residential and commercial projects.
Unmatched Design Versatility
Whether your client wants classic cool or trendy and hot, an interior designer needs versatile materials to make their vision a reality. You don’t have to go far to achieve any desired look, since quartz countertops have all the possible colors, textures and styles needed for your clients needs. You’d love anything from the realistic look of natural marble white-kitchen counter-tops to bright trendy colors in unique finishes.
Since manufacturing technology permits the company to tightly regulate color and design pattern from slab to slab, visual consistency is easily attained. Predictability matters greatly for designers who tackle projects that span large spaces, like hotels, condominiums or businesses. Natural stones can differ quite a bit from one slab or delivery to the next. Quartz ensures accurate reproduction of the intended effect every time.
Quartz can also be created in countless edge profiles – ranging from an extremely simple eased edge all the way to the very detailed Ogee and waterfall profiles. Since Quartz can also be fabricated integrally with sinks they have no lines between countertop and countertop. Quartz integrates well with all design styles, whether designing for a cutting-edge contemporary kitchen or a truly classic traditional space.
Superior Durability and Low Maintenance
When considering aesthetics with regard to the design; as much as beauty needs to be accounted for, there needs to also be a factor regarding usability. With this, when we think about durability for the kitchen; quartz really is able to offer something outstanding with hardly any required maintenance, particularly the non-porous qualities this material exhibits. With it being stain-proof and completely non-absorbent; a dirty kitchen will find it far easier to clean as bacterial may grow on non-porous areas of the counter-top surfaces.
With a quartz surface, there's no need for ongoing sealing as there is with many natural stone options. So over the lifespan of the home design, maintenance costs are kept down for property owners. Surface scratching and chipping are minimal and designers don't need to worry about wear and tear over the years to the detriment of their plans. That's why so many restaurants, cafes and kitchen facilities for hotels look to quartz for their countertops because they get heavy day to day use.
As a designer, selecting quartz gives them a decreased quantity of time or energy that has to be applied after installation. Their purchasers also like which the stones consist of elegance and in shape; offering their designers with outstanding remarks concerning delivering splendor and capabilities for every job. Those dwelling that want the beauty from Quartz while remaining reduced maintenance also will uncover it appealing.
Consistent Quality and Predictable Results
The disadvantage of using natural stone, apart from cost, is the inconsistencies and variation between different stone slabs can often be tricky to achieve the same looks between. Because no two natural stone slabs are ever the same, you often have to visit the local stone yards in person to be able to get a look at a few and the final job may even be slightly different again, but this is all part of its natural charm.
This consistent predictability is especially beneficial for multi-unit residential buildings, hospitality spaces, and commercial environments in which an identical look and feel is desired for countless individual projects. A single product choice might be made across a hundred or more units with consistent, high performance and visual appeal guaranteed. Quartz product consistency makes it easy to source, cuts down on materials waste, and helps facilitate orderly management of large scale, projects.
Sustainability and Responsible Sourcing
Sustainability has come to occupy a prominent position in interior design, and the practice can be supported by quartz which can help contribute to the practice's pursuit of sustainability practices. This material's production process uses existing by-products and waste from quarries to support sustainability by conserving resources and decreasing landfill.
Durability and longevity are key factors in quartz countertops in addition to the more sustainable aspects. Countertops that stand the test of time are less likely to need replacing, cutting down the effect of the construction on the environment during its useful life. If quartz counters are installed now, they will serve beautifully in decades.
What's more, quartz doesn't need abrasive cleansers, so your kitchen has a cleaner indoor air environment. Because it's non-porous, quartz provides an antibacterial and sanitary kitchen surface. Designers targeting sustainable building rating criteria, like LEED, can accrue points in materials and resources for using quartz materials and helping their clients meet sustainability goals.
