7 Advantages for Your Home and Office with Dekton Keranium Countertops
Dekton possesses all of the technical criteria necessary to change any interior or outdoor residential design concept to a highly resistant surface.
- Wide Range of Colours: there are fifty different Dekton colours across seven Collections. Dekton's Collections encompass an unlimited number of colour, finish and thickness combinations that you can use anywhere. In addition, the seven Dekton collections cover every design style and theme, namely: Natural, Tech, Solid, Industrial, Liquid, and Stonika.
- Scratch and Abrasion Resistant: the surface comprises 116 mm3 wear volume average abrasion. According to a study about the abrasion wear of natural stones, Dekton provides almost 5.5 times abrasion resistance than white marble, which offers abrasion wear of 22.23.
- Unrivalled Thermal Shock Resistance: natural stones such as marble, granite and quartzite can crack if you place a scorching item when the surface is at cool temperatures. It is because of the shock in changing temperatures between the surface's temperature and the things you are putting on it. But placing sweltering items on manufactured stones such as quartz will burn the resin on the surface, leaving unrepairable scorching. In contrast to all the stones mentioned above, high temperatures do not affect Dekton's surface. You can drag your pans and pots from the oven directly onto Dekton, which withstands up to 300 Celsius degrees of heat.
- Fireproof: Dekton is rated Class A1 (Class A1 has the highest performance and class F has the lowest), according to the UK's BS EN 13501-1 regulation, offering the highest performance regarding reaction to fire. It also means that, unlike many other stones, it can tolerate direct contact with heated cookware, devices, and cutlery without being burned.
- Easy to Clean: Dekton isn't affected by bleach in contrast to quartz. And, unlike marble, it isn't affected by acids. Instead, spray the surface with any typical household and cleaning chemical. Dekton is perfect for quick clean-ups around the kitchen and bathroom.
- Low Maintenace: it doesn't require sealants, additional coatings, primers, or enhancers. Ever. Over time, this surface's technical features save you more time and cost than any other worktop material due to its next to no-maintenance attributes.
- Stain Resistant: It can withstand any cooking ingredient, food and substance, including wine, turmeric, coffee, lemons, ketchup, etc. For the daily cleaning of DEKTON by Cosentino, use Windolene or a similar spray and a soft scouring pad. Otherwise, use water and neutral soap.
Five Additional Dekton Benefits
As a bonus, by choosing a Dekton work surface for your home and offices, you will instantly benefit from five design Extras:
- Dimensional Stability: working with the set Dekton slab sizes of 3200 x 1440 mm allows you and everyone else in your project to plan months before work on site commences, avoiding material waste and saving costs. In addition, because it expands minimally, you can fit it with narrow seams between worktops.
In all situations, the joints will maintain their minimal thickness. - High Mechanical Strength: The strength of the press used to create Dekton is up to 25,000 tonnes, equivalent to 111 Statues of Liberty, giving it the highest mechanical power in its class. Its compactness makes it available five different thicknesses, letting you use it even when your space needs protection from impact and winds.
- UV (ultraviolet) light resistance is excellent: Dekton is extremely UV resistant and does not fade or deteriorate over time in any interior or outdoor application.
- High Resistance to Hydrolysis: It is a process that controls when and to what extent the surface disintegrates. Hydrolysis is another term for the surface splitting of cheaper materials. Dekton's superior resistance is ideal for applications in bathrooms, spas, or outdoor pools and ponds.
- Resistant to Freezing and Thawing: The ability to withstand freezing and thawing: Dekton resistance's against thawing and freezing tests (UNE EN ISO 10545-12), and its use in diverse weathers demonstrate its outstanding performance.
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.
