7 Advantages for Your Home and Office with Dekton Worktops
Dekton possesses all 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.
- Scratch & 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 more abrasion resistance than white marble.
- 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. In contrast, 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 degrees of heat.
- Fireproof: Dekton is rated Class A1 (Class A1 has the highest performance), according to the UK's BS EN 13501-1 regulation, offering the highest performance regarding reaction to fire.
- Easy to Clean: Dekton isn't impacted by bleach compared to quartz. And, unlike marble, it isn't impacted by acids.
- Low Maintenance: it doesn't require sealants, additional coatings, primers, or enhancers.
- 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 a glass cleaning spray and a soft scouring pad. Otherwise, use water and neutral soap.
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)
