Quartz & Corian are Manmade Products - What are the Differences?
Manage episode 434913640 series 1985175
Making choices about countertops for your remodel can be very confusing since there are so many materials to chose from, but we will talk about the pros and cons of both Corian© and Quartz.
These products are manmade and differ from natural stone. FYI: Quartzite is a natural stone often confused with Quartz.
Nancy chats with Kristin Girard, Spec Development Manager with Hallmark Building Supply. As a supplier of both Corian© and quartz to the design community, Kristin is well-versed in the characteristics and benefits of both materials.
Talking points:
Corian
- Pros and Cons
- Benefits
- What not to do with Corian
- Care & Maintenance
Quartz
- Pros and Cons
- Benefits
- What not to do with Quartz
- Care & Maintenance
To conclude:
- Both materials are highly resistant to scratching but are not entirely scratch proof. They will handle everyday use without any damages. Quartz is slightly better at resisting scratches because it is ranked higher on the scale of hardest minerals.
- Quartz and Corian each offer plenty of advantages and a handful of drawbacks. Your final decision will ultimately make up elements of the above factors and what fits best in your home.
- They provide many color options
