Many customers fall into a misunderstanding when choosing a white body color sintered stone. Is the whiteness of the sintered stone body the higher the better?
Many manufacturers will use whiteness testing equipment to test the whiteness of the sintered stone body to show their customers how much whiteness they have achieved. However, this is a misunderstanding that the whiteness of the sintered stone body is the higher the better. The whiteness of the sintered stone body on the market are generally divided into cool white and warm white. Our company’s white belongs to warm white. We add zirconium silicate to it as a brightener. This whitening agent material is very expensive but makes the texture and gloss of the entire sintered stone slab more warm and natural. No matter the slab is used for countertops wall or floors, the whole space looks more comfortable and warm.
Because the price of zirconium silicate is relatively expensive, the price of a ton is about 20,000 RMB, which is equivalent to 3,125.94 U.S. dollars. Therefore, the cost of our white body products is relatively high. Many low-priced products in the market are cool-white because the manufacturers replace the whitening agent from the more expensive zirconium silicate to the cheaper material. In this way, the production cost will be reduced but the whiteness will be visually cold and make people feel uncomfortable. Therefore, do not just use the whiteness as single indicator to distinguish the quality of the sintered stone. When you choose the supplier, take a look of the test report of the sintered stone. Many numbers on it will help you understand the material. In our next time, we will show you how to check those numbers on the test report.
