For a chunkier looking Caesarstone® Quartz Worktop, the very latest in manufacturing technology enables us to offer a 20mm worktop with a downturn of 40-100mm. Caesarstone® Quartz worktops with the deeper downturn are only available in straight runs, with a single bevel edge detail. Please contact our sales office for further details.

v Some Caesarstone® colours have random veining. Veins may vary in intensity and highlight seams. Base colour remains consistent between slabs (from the same batch and requires mitre joint on corners incurring additional cost). Veins when joined together, may show and that the veining pattern may vary in intensity and also directional.
Slab Size
Typical slab size 3040 x 1380mm. Any sizes over this would need a join.
Joins
Caesarstone® Quartz joints are finished with a small ariss to the top edge. Silicone sealant is applied to prevent water ingression.
Tolerance
Tolerance in Caesarstone® Quartz is ±2mm
Thermal expansion
Due to thermal expansion Caesarstone® Quartz can expand up to 1mm per metre. A gap of at least 3mm should be left at each end of the worktop when fitted and filled with decorators caulk. When Caesarstone® Quartz is joined to other materials (such as glass, steel or wood) an elastic type of adhesive, for example polyurethane, is required for expansion.
Overhangs and supports
Any overhang extending more than 300mm must be supported.

- A minimum of 100mm is required between hob and sink cutouts.
- A minimum of 50mm is required between two sink cutouts.
