CHEMICAL FORMULATION
Because this stone contains no resins or organic ingredients, Dekton does not employ a polymerisation process during its manufacture, and its chemical makeup is entirely inorganic.
In addition, DEKTON uses several formulas that vary according to the surface type, meaning that the final chemical structure can change without affecting its chemical or physical qualities.
Aluminium silicates, amorphous silica, crystalline silica, zircon, and inorganic colours are a few examples of DEKTON's chemical makeup. The crystalline silica component in all colours and formulations are always less than 11% by weight.

COLOUR AND TONES
Cosentino assigns numbers to describe tones in the colours (slight changes in coloUr intensity), and each slab is defined by Colour & Tone.
Here are the factors that determine Dekton colours and tone variation:
- Colours in solids: E variant (control with) The slab unit label with Colour and Tone Code reflects the colour and tone.
- The label determines the slab's Tracing and its history. As it progresses through the industrial manufacturing operation via the slab number (batch).
- Spectrophotometer settings: Lab/D65/10o).
- Colours with veins: visible differences (of pattern)
