During the manufacturing process, industrial dust is vacuum-collected to prevent air pollution, then reprocessed by a water filter/recycling system and reconstituted into an entirely inert solid. All residual waste material is securely stored to preventing environmental leakage. Regenerative thermal oxides are installed throughout the manufacturing plant to improve the surrounding air quality.
The term “green” has many applicable definitions, resulting in significant confusion for the end user. Many companies make assertions and generalize their environmental policies. Caesarstone is ISO 14001 certified, implementing a voluntary eco-management system into its manufacturing process.
Quartz is one of nature’s most abundant minerals, and is available in quantities far greater than any other stone. Caesarstone firmly believes that being a responsible environmental partner is paramount to providing a quality product.
Quartz is a common waste product of other mining industries that Caesarstone utilizes for production, thus eliminating environmental waste. The collected material is then processed ?crushed, washed and sifted prior to the manufacturing process.
GREENGUARD Indoor Air Quality and GREENGUARD Children and Schools: Certifies Caesarstone as a low-VOC (volatile organic compound) product complying with California’s Department of Health Services Standard Practice (CA Section 01350) for chemical emissions from building products used in schools, offices and other sensitive environments.
Nonporous by design, Caesarstone naturally prevents the growth of surface mold and microbes — without the need for harmful treatments or chemicals, meeting NSF 51 international standards. While simple cleaning with soap and water is sufficient, occasional cleansing with Method® Daily Polish Spray or Method® Daily Stone Surface Wipes will keep the quartz surface looking its best.
Caesarstone uses industry-approved adhesives containing polyester and acrylic epoxies that produce either low or no VOC emissions, meeting all applicable LEED standards.
Efficient distribution plays an important role in energy conservation and emission reduction. Caesarstone’s supply chain originates at the manufacturing plant, stopping only for distributors, fabricators and the end user.
Although most end-user surfaces are generally replaced by the owner’s design preferences, Caesarstone will last a lifetime — and is the only quartz surfacing company to offer a Lifetime* Warranty.
