Unistone Bianco Carrara, also known as Unistone Carrara, is off-white quartz material comprising 93-95% natural minerals and greyish veins that replicate the white Carrara marble worktop’s surface. The entire slab contains pure quartz with a hardness of 7 on the Mohs scale, on par with granite. Moreover, like all other Unistone materials, Bianco Carrara quartz is durable and resistant to scratching, heat and stains. The material is also easy to clean and maintain.
Featuring Quick & In-Depth Design Features
Kitchen and bathroom design is often more fast-paced than outdoor and landscape building. Interior designers in London and homeowners alike will benefit from consistent patterns. They permit quick, creative design and further customization later in the project.
Unistone Bianco Carrara allows for mixed formatting to accommodate multiple design styles. It also comes in three thicknesses. A 12 mm, 20 mm, and 30 mm thick slab makes it easier for people to design any space.
With Bianco Carrara’s quartz and its efficient architectural design features, London homeowners can build a second space. For example, they can create a utility room or pantry to further instil their home design.
It also allows for more systematic design processes. In addition, it makes it easier for busy people to retain the look of marble and build their own ideas.
Unistone Bianco Carrara also lets household visualize their designs as they can get free samples of the material in different finishes like polished and Velluto.
Collaborating With An Architect
One of the biggest challenges with home building is working with design professionals. Lack of face-to-face interaction and in-person meetings can lead to roadblocks in finishing renovation and home-build projects. Words can also get lost in translation when working with materials with varying patterns, such as natural marble. That is why Unistone Bianco Carrara prioritizes seamless teamwork by being an all-in-one worktop for food preparation and social gathering activities.
With Unistone, architects can easily communicate with their clients through samples representative of the entire worktop. Best of all, these aesthetic features are available for every home. Because the natural grey veins, flowing patterns, and marbled backdrop are already built into the surface, homeowners and architects no longer need to meet in person to look at different marble slabs.
Households can easily communicate with their interior designer and set meetings for easier collaboration without making trips to stone yards to check their stone slabs. Additionally, Unistone quartz allows teams to work with set slab sizes in real-time, so both professionals and users are all on the same page.
Why Unistone Bianco Carrara?
Italian Bianco Carrara is one of the UK’s most famous white marble looks. It has many grey veins and marbling, making it one of the most intricate white marble slabs.
But when it comes to maintenance, you must seal its surface every couple of years to preserve its shine and avoid stains on the surface. In addition, you must ensure that no lemons, oranges, and other acidic substances contact the marble’s surface directly to prevent the marble from etching.
Unistone Bianco Carrara fixes all the issues of natural white Carrara marble, offering an acid-resistant worktop, impervious to household foods and chemicals. In addition, its non-absorbent surface does not require sealants and is relatively easy to clean. Just use a microfiber cloth, water, or mild soap and scrub it down.

Unistone is a quartz surface, very similar to Silestone. Both of these brands offer comparable performance features and interchangeable characteristics.
When comparing Unistone vs Silestone, the most significant difference is the price. Silestone has a higher price range, making it more of a luxury product than Unistone. However, this doesn't necessarily mean that Silestone is of better quality; they are both high-end products.
Here are the three main differences between Unistone and Silestone
- Unistone's standard slab size is 300 x 140 cm. Conversely, Silestone's standard slab size is 306 x 140 cm
- Unistone's Jumbo slab size is 330 x 165 cm. A Silestone Jumbo slab size is 325 x 159 cm (an example of cost savings by purchasing less number of slabs for a project)
- Although both Unistone and Silestone offer 50 different designs, these differ across the two brands. Therefore you choose the material that best suits your style and budget, irrespective of the brand.
