Production Process
The production of Calacatta Series Quartz Slabs involves a meticulous process that ensures each slab is of the highest quality. The journey begins with the selection of premium raw materials, primarily quartz, which is known for its hardness and durability. These materials are sourced from reputable quarries and undergo rigorous testing to ensure their purity and consistency.
Once the raw materials are approved, they are transported to state-of-the-art production facilities. Here, the quartz is combined with high-quality pigments to achieve the distinctive grey vein pattern characteristic of Calacatta marble. Advanced polymer resins are also added to bind the materials together, enhancing the slab’s strength and resistance to wear and tear.
The mixture is then poured into large molds and subjected to high pressure and temperature. This process, known as compaction and curing, ensures that the slab is uniformly dense and free from any imperfections. After curing, the slabs are carefully polished to achieve a high-gloss finish, bringing out the natural beauty of the stone.
