3 Reasons to Choose Quartz Countertops for Your Commercial Facility
Are you developing or updating a hotel, restaurant, office building, or other commercial facility? If so, choose quartz for your reception desks, bar tops, and restroom counters. Here are three reasons why quartz is an excellent choice for your new or renovated commercial facility.
1. Quartz Is Durable and Easy to Maintain
Quartz has grown in popularity for both residential and commercial applications. People choose quartz as a building material because of its durability and ease of maintenance.
The benefits of quartz include the following:
- Scratch-resistant
- Stain-resistant
- Impact-resistant
- Non-porous
- No future sealing
Bacteria, mold, mildew, and other microorganisms can't penetrate quartz because of the non-porous finish on quartz surfaces. What does this mean for a commercial facility? This means that your quartz restroom countertops are easier for your staff to clean and less likely to spread disease-causing germs.
Some materials, including vinyl and tile, are cheaper to install at the outset. However, tile and vinyl can mildew and mold. Tile, vinyl, and similar surfaces also can require many hours of labor to keep them clean and germ-free. Water can penetrate behind loose tile grout and vinyl as well, which causes serious problems with rot in the walls and framing of any similarly affected facility.
Granite, concrete, wood, and other surfaces require sealing and extra care to keep the materials clean and attractive. Quartz requires far less care than other building materials so your long-term maintenance costs for quartz furnishings are easier on your facility's budget.
2. Quartz Offers Multiple Options in Color and Finish
Today's quartz products are available in a wide array of designs. Whether you want a decor that's contemporary, elegant, Bohemian, or industrial, a quartz countertop exists that's perfect for your needs.
Do you want sophisticated countertops that look like marble? Do you prefer pure white countertops with a glossy finish? Are you looking for countertops in bold colors like apple green, royal blue, or bright red? Quartz can fulfill all of the above desires. You can create distinctive, one-of-a-kind looks for your facility with the diverse colors and finishes of quartz countertops.
Businesses benefit from more colorful quartz countertops because the countertops are available in hues that match company logo colors. You can coordinate your facility with quartz that enhances your company's image and reinforces your brand.
Manufacturers offer quartz countertops in designs that include the following looks:
- White or black marbled
- Pearl-finished
- Glossy or flat black
- Faux soapstone, concrete, and granite
- Solid or variegated blue, red, and other colors
Quartz countertops are usually thin slabs, but you can also order quartz countertops that look like the counters are extra large and substantial. In addition, quartz materials are useful for wall coverings and backsplashes to create durable, great-looking, and ultra-coordinated rooms. Fireplace surrounds, conference desks, and custom surfaces are all possible with quartz building products.
3. Quartz Is Eco-Friendly
Quartz countertops aren't made from unadulterated quartz. Instead, quartz is an engineered product composed of a variety of materials.
Quartz has materials including the following:
- Waste quartz
- Waste granite
- Waste marble
- Recycled ceramic, glass, and mirrors
- Recycled silica
- Polymers and resins
- Brass and other metal filings
No natural stones of any type are quarried specifically for making countertops. Since most of the ingredients in a quartz countertop are by-products of other industries, quartz is a very green choice. Facility managers who want to boost their sustainability scores choose quartz for its excellent looks, performance, and eco-friendly composition.
