Natural marble, although beautiful to look at and touch, is extremely expensive, difficult to fabricate and costly to transport. Patterns and colours vary from slab to slab and it has to be carefully maintained.
It can also be fragile, easily stained, damaged and its excessive quarrying has had an environmental impact too.
COMPAC have, by utilising advanced manufacturing techniques, been able to create ‘technological marble’- an engineered stone composite which has the look and feel of natural marble but with properties that eradicate many of the problems associated with it.
Containing up to 96% natural marble mixed with resins, COMPAC’s technological marble has a hardness that is similar to marble but its resistance to impact and breakage is much greater owing to its enhanced flexibility. It has a consistent, uniform appearance and can be fitted to large surfaces without breaks or differences in colour tone being noticeable.
Its porosity is practically zero therefore absorption of water and other liquids is minimal thus achieving a hygienic product that is both easy to clean and maintain.
Like natural stone, COMPAC’s technological marble can also be polished, thus maintaining its shine and original appearance for much longer.
It is a versatile too with a wide range of colours, textures and sizes available .It can be used on kitchen and bathroom floors, walls, vanity tops, building façades, staircases, fireplaces and on high footfall surfaces such as airports, rail stations, shopping malls and public buildings.
Because it is lighter than natural marble, COMPAC’s technogical marble is easier to fabricate and install.
COMPAC also offer technological quartz worksurfaces including: The TREND range - available in 5 cool grey colours, Absolute Blanc –a stunning pure white quartz worksurface and the Nature Range – the first quartz worksurface range manufactured using BIO resins from renewable organic material.
