Why we changed from Reconstituted Stone (Engineered Stone)

As you may have been aware, there has been an industry wide wake-up call to the adverse effects that engineered stone and silica can have on the human body. At Kitchens U Build, we take our commitment to safety as an utmost priority, so we have ceased all supplies of reconstituted & engineered stone. Teaming up with our supplier, Stone Ambassador, we now offer Zenith Surfaces as a stone option for all our kitchen and laundry projects.

What are Zenith Surfaces?

Zenith Surfaces are classified as a Vitrified Compact Surface (VCS)

meaning that every slab of Zenith Surfaces undergoes a process partially transforming the core material into a non-crystalline, amorphous glass-like structure. Zenith Surfaces use 89% recycled material and are 100% crystalline silica free, the perfect replacement for engineered stone.

Why choose Zenith Surfaces?

Look, style, and durability are just some of the top reasons our clients LOVE stone for their benchtops. Zenith Surfaces solid construction makes it resistant to most kinds of cracks, chips, and scratches. When it comes to durability, we are so confident in Zenith Surfaces' ability to withstand the tests of everyday living that we offer a 10-year limited warranty on all Zenith Surfaces products.

What are the colour differences?

Zenith surfaces come in a wide range of current colours. The range includes white and neutral tones, as well as a variety of greys and blacks. These colours are easily matched to our current kitchen and laundry components range. Check out the Zenith Surfaces website to find your perfect shade.

Stain and temperature resistance

Zenith Surfaces exhibit phenomenal compressive and flexural strength and high resistance to scratches, stains, and heat, making them the perfect alternative to current engineered stone products in the marketplace. Their almost wholly non-porous surface means that they are virtually stain-proof and suitable for any high-traffic surface area.

Installation and versatility

A key benefit of Zenith Surfaces is its ability to be cast in various thicknesses, meaning a Zenith Surface can be used across multiple areas in a project. Its versatility means you can use it for benchtops, splashbacks, laundries, and enclosed alfresco areas, perfect for giving your new kitchen cabinets and laundry a unified look. Our expert installers also ensure a quality installation, meaning that once it's in place, you won't have to worry about the surface again.
