Cabinet countertop contest: natural stone PK artificial stone

Cabinets are now one of the main furniture for home life, and the kitchen countertops are the closest to food contact. The durability and antibacterial properties of the countertops directly affect people's daily lives. More and more consumers are starting to pay attention to the environmental protection and hygiene issues on the table. Most of the countertops now decorated are natural stone (marble or granite) and artificial stone. Both materials can be used. Relatively speaking, natural stone is harder and artificial stone is softer. Although foreign man-made stones can be treated with sandpaper to scratch the surface of the lines, the artificial stone made in China is more polished.

The following describes the advantages and disadvantages of several commonly used countertop materials. For your reference!

First, marble countertops

Advantages: rich colors, soft texture, natural and diverse texture, easy to cut or sculpture;

Disadvantages: As it is a natural formation, subtle loosening cracks are easily broken. Because stone is a porous material structure, if sewage is infiltrated during production, transportation, or construction, it is difficult to clean and prone to rupture. In daily cleaning, it is unavoidable that some residues and dirt will be filled into the cracks as the wipes are wiped, making it a breeding ground for bacteria.

Natural stone in the long process of natural formation, due to the existence of heavy metal substances will have more or less certain radiation, may have an impact on the body, but more of a psychological impact.

Second, granite countertops

Advantages: Granite density, high hardness, the surface is very wearable, is also one of the materials commonly used in home decoration, compared with natural marble materials used in kitchen countertops, granite anti-bacterial regeneration ability is better.

Disadvantages: As a countertop surface material, the length of natural stone is usually not long, so if you want to make a long overall table (especially U-shaped, L-shaped table), there will certainly be joints, these seams are also easy to hide dirt.

If you really like natural materials, then granite is an ideal choice, but only to pay special attention to the level of joints of construction workers to prevent hidden dangers.

Third, artificial stone countertops

The candidate stone has been widely used in home decoration, especially in the kitchen countertop, and is currently the mainstream countertop material in the market.

Advantages: artificial stone lines and rich colors, and can be comparable to the stone, and non-toxic and non-radioactive, easy to clean, can truly achieve seamless stitching. It is an eco-friendly, environmentally friendly material.

Disadvantages: Artificial stone belongs to the processing industry, and the technical requirements are not high. Many inferior products produced by small enterprises flood the market and damage the interests of consumers. Some middle and low-end products also have problems such as discoloration, poor aging resistance, and oil stains.
