Technistone Gobi Black

Technistone Gobi Black is a rich, lustrous, polished black shade worktop with a smooth pattern and collection of transparent crystals. This stone is the result of a revolutionary process in which natural minerals are fused with quartz to form a granite-like material.
You can use it for kitchen and bathroom surfaces, walls, floors and other applications.
Black quartz worktops at no extra cost
When you choose Technistone Gobi Black quartz, you won’t need to pay extra for an upgraded worktop with a non-porous surface or use natural stone sealants.

That’s hours, not days.
Gobi Black quartz worktops are now available in London and the South of England. This stunning material is available from The Worktop Library, and its team can install it within five business days!
