Ceramic Stone is stone made out of clay. 

The clay used for our benchtops is highly refined and has additives added to enhance its natural properties. Ceramic stone is very dense which means typically a thinner slab is used which results in a thin looking benchtop. Like all ceramics, when glazed, it has excellent dirt repelling properties. Ceramics are the new up and coming material in premium stone benchtop design and a lot of high-end kitchen designers have started incorporating ceramic benchtops in their designs.

Features
  • Ceramic Stone is extremely heat and scratch resistant, however it is fragile and non repairable. Talk to us about how to look after this product so that it maintains its excellent longevity.
  • With ceramic stone, the pattern doesn't go all the way through the material, so any cut edges or shaping is plain white.
Installation

Installers must ensure that stone benchtops are secured to the kitchen cabinetry and fully sealed with silicon to prevent water running into the cupboards below. Sharp edges are also to be avoided to prevent injury.

Cut Shapes and Bowl Installation

We also can cut out shapes and install the sink (bowl) for you. Click here to see our bowl options. Cut-outs can be used for anything including hobs.

A sealer is always applied to the surface of a stone benchtop. A benchtop's shape can be curved and multiple slabs are joined together using clamps to make a tight join that is only visible under very close inspection.

We also make large pieces of furniture such as boardroom table tops and executive desks.
