The thickness of quartz stone “determines the quality”, is this statement accurate?

Now there are many varieties of quartz stone sales market, but most of the thickness is 15mm, but the thickness of 20mm and 30mm are also available. Many people may mistakenly believe that naturally, the thicker the quality, the better, and the more durable it will be. In fact, this is not the case, generally speaking, the thickness is not the only standard to judge its quality. Because its thickness will vary according to the scope of use.

What we most often hear is that quartz stone is 90% quartz sand and 7% resin synthesis, then what is the remaining 3%? In fact, it is titanium dioxide, color powder, curing agent and accelerator. If the quality of raw materials all pass the pass, coupled with a scientific ratio, strict production process, product quality can be guaranteed. The corresponding proportion of uncoordinated, inferior raw materials will lead to a decline in the quality of the finished product. The influence of production equipment on quality is also very important, and the vacuum value before pressing should reach -99 or more to avoid bubbles in the plate. The pressing pressure can not be less than 50 tons, so that the density of the sheet can reach the required value of 2.6g/ m3, and the water absorption of the finished sheet can not exceed 0.02%.

In fact, the thickness of quartz stone is not a standard to judge the quality of good or bad, due to the different range of use, the thickness may have certain requirements. For example, the cabinet table, the cabinet table can be divided into pad type and pad type, the use of pad type 15mm is the best, the use of pad type needs to be glued on the ground reinforcement (backplane). The use of the ground is mostly 20mm or 30mm plates, and the wall is mostly thin. In fact, there is no good or bad, only suitable and unsuitable. The scope of application is not the same, so the requirements for the product are not the same.

Tips: Because the quartz stone is relatively heavy, the cabinet table is 20/30mm thick, and the bearing capacity of the cabinet should be fully considered! Therefore, we do not only look at the thickness when choosing quartz stone countertops, but also fully consider a variety of factors, and choose the right one is the best.
