There is much talk today with concrete products that last a lifetime, have less harmful effects to the environment and is a way to stay green in your remodeling project. While concrete is a good source of material for longevity there are limits to what it can do. If you are looking to update your kitchen and have been introduced to new green products on the market for counter tops, consider using manufactured stone. Made out of stone but much lighter, the quartz-bound process uses resin, pigments and other types of filler then heated to a tough durable slab. Stone is beautiful and natural but also expensive to have installed.
Architecturally engineered stone veneer provides the crafted finish at a fraction of the cost of natural stone material. The speed of construction is greatly increased because pre-engineered techniques provide material to the job site that requires no extra time for cutting and fitting the stones for proper fit. The cultured, or man made stone, is a very dependable product. Colors are mixed evenly and this prevents fade or color change due to heating and cooling cycles.
