Content Description

Understanding the Art of Quartz, 2024
CEU: 0.1 | CEU Code: HY-EN-171802-1225

Made from one of the hardest and most abundant minerals in nature, engineered quartz is a beautiful, durable surface solution for a wide range of commercial and residential applications desiring the beauty of natural stone without its drawbacks. The raw materials of quartz surfacing are harvested from the Earth and formed into slabs via an innovative production process, resulting in a homogenous, nonporous material with superior performance and low maintenance requirements. Reviewed in this course are the features, fabrication guidelines, and design trends of quartz surfacing.

Learning Objectives

  • Discuss the history, components, and manufacturing process of quartz surfacing that ensures a durable, homogeneous, nonporous material designed for a variety of applications, including those requiring a high level of hygiene.
  • State the fabrication considerations of quartz surfacing to facilitate a successful installation with minimal waste.
  • Review the trends, finishes, and patterns of quartz surfacing that offer unlimited design opportunities.
  • Summarize the superior properties of quartz surfacing, including scratch/heat/stain resistance, eco-friendliness, and NSF 51 certification.
