From Nature to Your Home: The Superior Performance of Sintered Stone Slabs
The development of new materials is a testament to human civilization’s progress. The advent of sintered stone panels signifies a breakthrough in the long lineage of materials used over the ages. Inspired by natural elements like stone, wood grain, rust, cloth grain, paint, cement, and metal, sintered stone redefines the aesthetics of surfaces. It brings the authentic texture and color of these elements to the fore, transforming them into a unique visual treat.
Understanding the Genesis: Crafting Sintered Stone Also known as ‘dense sintered stone,’ the key constituents of sintered stone are clay, feldspar powder, and silica. With the assistance of a press exerting a force of over 10,000 tonnes and temperatures ranging between 1200-1500 °C, these elements are sintered to form the finished product. This intricate process replicates the natural formation of stones over millions of years, creating a product with unparalleled qualities.
The practical applications of FOR USTONE’s sintered stone slabs are vast and versatile, thanks to their customizable properties. For instance, a sintered stone kitchen countertop can withstand direct contact with high-temperature objects without deformation, making it an excellent surface for a busy kitchen. It’s not only heat-resistant but also scratch-resistant, which means that your day-to-day cooking activities won’t leave a mark.
