Care of Composite Worktops
Wondering how to care for Composite i.e. Quartz Worktops? Granite Care can help you out.
Quartz is a man-made material, meaning it is manufactured from different but graded Granites and Resins. When being manufactured, the surface of Quartz is sealed completely due to the manufacturing process, leaving it free of natural pits and pores which means there is not as much cleaning involved in everyday maintenance whereas it would take a lot longer to clean and maintain with Granite.
To care for your Composite (Quartz) Worktops, you will not need to seal your Worktops , however your Natural Granite Worktops from Granite Care will be readily sealed when being fabricated by Granite Care meaning you will only need to seal your Natural Granite Worktops one year after installation.
Why is sealing my Granite Worktops important?
Sealing the Worktops Surface is important because this will prevent any liquids or food-stuffs from soaking into the material which will cause long-term damage to your Kitchen Worktops, and promote bacteria. Damage is not what you want when you have spent so much on your Worktops!
Whenever you have a spill of anything on your Worktops, it is best to clean up the mess straight away. This will lessen the chance of any problems occurring in either the short-term or the long-term.
Recommended Granite Sealants available at Granite Care can be purchased.
