Quartzite

With gemlike beauty, this stone is mostly harder than Granite also resistant to heat. Quartzite has the look of marble, but it’s much easier to care for, so if maintenance is an issue that keeps you from marble, quartzite is a great alternative.

Many people look for durability in a natural stone surface.

Quartzite leans toward the hard side of natural stone, so that means it won’t wear down or develop problems in the short term.

Cleaning quartzite countertops is simple. Soap and warm water will make the surface look fantastic! There isn’t a need for unusual cleaners.

Quartzite is highly resistant to UV rays, which is fantastic if you’re using it in an outdoor setting or in a room that gets natural light. You won’t have to worry about that.
