Benefits of Sensa Glacial Blue Granite

Sensa by Cosentino features a revolutionary stain protection treatment called ‘SenGuard’ that ensures our product is stain resistant and maintenance-free for many years, unlike standard sealers on the market. In addition, Cosentino applies SenGuard to the granite during manufacturing, requiring no additional sealing for years.

Over time, daily activity and household cleaners can wear down standard sealers, leaving the granite unprotected in some areas. Due to this wear and tear, you must re-apply these sealers to protect the stone, which not only means additional cost but can also cause the darkening of the material.
Also, standard sealers act as a protective film and do not allow the stone to breathe, thus reducing its resiliency. It results from decades of research combined with the experience of a company that has been in some of the most demanding stone markets for over ten years.

Stone Treatment & Superior Protection by Sensa

Sensa is a stain-resisting solution that Cosentino applies to the stone. Sensa is not a sealant, and it bonds to the face of the stone differently than traditional sealants.
Unlike other sealer solutions, the Sensa treatment enables the stone to breathe. It secures itself by permeating the stone’s composition while keeping its Thi actual attractiveness and natural colours.

SenGuard is a superior and unique stain protection treatment—an unlike a standard sealer. Senguard chemically bonds to the granite, changing the superficial tension of the stone.

Under typical conditions, most stone surfaces absorb liquids. SenGuard creates a barrier to prevent drinks such as water, coffee, or oil from penetrating and staining Sensa’s surface while allowing the granite to breathe. If there are pipes or a dishwasher underneath, mould and moisture may form and cause damage to the surface. However, with Cosentino’s Sensa granite, the humidity passes through the material, helping to avoid these issues.

 

Senguard vs Standard Sealants

First, standard sealers require yearly reapplication to protect the stone from staining because they break down over time. But with Sensa, the treatment cannot be wiped or scrubbed off and is not affected by scouring sponges or common household cleaners. In addition, you don’t need any special cleaners to clean Sensa.

Secondly, standard sealers create a thin layer on top of the granite. They do not allow the stone to breathe. Sensa with SenGuard comes with a 15-year transferable warranty supported by Cosentino. And when common household cleaners break down these standard sealers, it is impossible to know when a sealer has worn down and which parts of the surface. Therefore, the areas without protection are susceptible to becoming darker in colour when exposed to chemicals often found in household cleaners.

In contrast, Sensa granite worktops and Sensa granite allow airflow into the surface, maintaining the original aesthetic features for which these stones are known. With a proven history and rigorous testing, Sensa Cosentino granite gives you all the beauty of natural stone with an outstanding performance against stains.
