Granite
A very hard, granular, crystalline, intrusive natural igneous rock consisting mainly of quartz, mica, and feldspar and often used as a building stone. Due to its durability and heat resistance it is a very popular product for countertops. It has diversity in both patterns and colours; it has depth and natural beauty. Granite is a porous stone, which must be sealed on occasion to protect it from stains and bacteria. It has visible seams and there is no warranty.
Quartz
Quartz countertops are manufactured with 93% natural quartz and polymer resins.
