If you were looking for yet another reason to ditch quartz and seek out healthier surfacing options, the latest news will have you headed for the hills (the hills of Italy to grab some sintered stone, if you ask us). According to recent reports, the effects of processing engineered stone are resulting in a critical silicosis epidemic. Silicosis is a life-threatening lung disease caused by breathing in tiny bits of silica found in materials like quartz. A healthy environment starts with healthy people. Using materials like Lapitec, PaperStone, and Durat, which contain zero to trace amounts of silica, promote health at every level, from production to installation.
