Sintered stone is artificial stone, although it looks like natural stone, but it has many good properties better than natural stone. Here I take marble as the representative of natural stone.
First, Sintered Stone have better performance in stain resistance than marble. Marble is composed of calcite. This mineral is dissolved easily by acidic substances. In fact, even normal household liquids like lemon juice and vinegar will dissolve calcite. The result is a dull spot left on the surface . While Sintered Stone’s density is very high(Lingbiao sintered stone desity can reach 2.38-2.44).The stain and the bacterial can not get into it and just stay on the surface, then they can be easily clean up.
Second, Sintered Stone has more applications than Marble. Sintered stone slabs are used not only in the manufacture of countertops for your kitchen, but also in the decoration of furniture, drawers, sideboards, as well as on all surfaces that must be very resistant to heat, wear, and scratches. In addition, the large format of boards offers complete design freedom even in complex shapes. High resistance to heat, UV radiation, and harsh climatic conditions makes Sintered Stone the best solution for outdoor applications, such as worktops for summer kitchens and barbecue.
Another difference between Sintered Stone and marble is that marble is much softer and is easily scratched. While the Sintered Stone’s hardness is 7 moh’s , which makes it resistant to scratch. For this reason some designers prefer to use sintered stone, especially for the countertop used in the kitchen.
For all the advantages of Sintered Stone over natural stone marble, you may ask what’s the advantage of marble. Well, The natural beauty of marble is so distinct and elegant, it is truly a unique material. In fact, Sintered Stone are designed to mimic the beauty of natural stones. Marble-like colors are the most common finishes for use in kitchens in the manufacture of countertops, drawers, interior, and exterior floors. Each individual finish has a high resistance to wear and scratches, as well as heat and staining. Architects and designers can individually design each individual structure thanks to a large selection of Sintered Stone colors and natural finishes that will successfully fit into any conditions.
