There are some other quartz products on offer. Some of which we have fabricated in the past. Our experience and historical use has proven to us that the majority of quartz slabs shipped in from China, for example, are of a low grade where it is virtually beyond capabilities to get the leading face edge of the material to take a polish. Be prudent if you elect a quartz brand other than those detailed below from an alternative supplier. With these low grade materials, chemicals are put on by the stone mason to the face edge, to make the material appear polished. Over a period of time, this will wear off leaving an unpolished face edge and occasionally much worse with scrapes and saw blade marks that were not previously visible. These low grade products really should be avoided, especially when you note that they will only change a quotation by a nominal amount. Essentially, if you choose a really cheap quartz option, you will in the main, simply be selecting quartz slabs where the quartzite content has been decreased for fabricators to offer low prices or worse still for the fabricator to cheat customers out of their hard earned cash. The quartzite reduction decreases the products level of durability. This renders it easier to scrape and is likely to have a dull finish.
