Finishing Surface: Polished (Glossy),Gauged,Glazed,Matt - Rough,Honed
Additional Names: Glacier White Sintered Stone
Glacier White Sintered Stone is an artificial stone crafted using advanced technology to perfectly replicate the elegant aesthetic of the original natural Calacatta Marble. This engineered stone features light gray veins gracefully traversing a pure white background, closely mimicking the distinctive look of natural Italian Calacatta Carrara Marble. The manufacturing process offers various thickness options, ranging from 0.6mm to 20.00mm, creating a matrix of minerals heated (or sintered) to form a solid, impenetrable mass.
The surface of Glacier White Sintered Stone boasts exceptional durability, rendering it resistant to etching, scratching, burning, or staining. Its performance surpasses that of quartz in various aspects. This versatile material finds application in kitchen and bathroom countertops, commercial tops, ornamental stone, stairs, interior and exterior wall and floor applications, mosaic, waterjet patterns, wall panels, table tops, columns, fireplaces, and custom furniture.
