What is Elements Quartz?
Made from one of the hardest minerals on earth, ELEMENTS Quartz™ countertops are arguably the most durable option for countertops. Its non-porous surface and unique blend of beauty and low maintenance makes ELEMENTS Quartz™ a popular choice for kitchens. The natural beauty of quartz is derived from its multi-dimensional gem-like color.
What are the Pros of Elements Quartz?
- Manufactured to be non-porous and scratch resistant.
- Built-in anti-microbial protection inhibits the growth of odor-causing bacteria, mold and mildew.
- Since Elements Quartz resists scratches and stains, daily use should not cause any damage to your surfaces.
- Affordable with more natural looking veins than some other options, Elements is a great choice for your home.

- As a residential customer, you’ll have the advantage of a 10-Year Residential Warranty available to you as the original owner where Elements countertops have been installed. (Only single-family residences are eligible for this warranty).
What are the Cons of Elements Quartz?
- Daily use shouldn’t mar your countertops. However, excessive force may cause cracking or chipping.
- Elements Quartz is not heatproof. We recommend using pot holders or trivets. Never place hot skillets or roasting pans directly onto the surface.
How to Care and Maintain Elements Quartz
- Daily wipe the surface with mild soap and water.
- Avoid harsh chemicals and abrasive cleaners. (Don’t use bleach!) These may mar the surface and impact the antimicrobial sealant.
- Use a cutting board to cut food items.
- Use pot holders or trivets to avoid discoloration.
- Never apply any sealers or polish to your quartz. These products are not needed and may cause your stone to have an irregular appearance.
