Tropical Storm

Yes. Tropical Storm Quartzite is a natural stone of metamorphic origin with a high quartz content. It is not a marble and offers higher surface durability.

Tropical Storm Quartzite has a harder and more durable structure. While Sahara Noir belongs to the marble group, Tropical Storm is more resistant to acids and heavy use thanks to its quartzite structure. Although their veining offers a similarly dramatic effect, they differ in technical performance.

Tropical Storm Quartzite is preferred for high-use applications such as:

• Kitchen countertops

• Island countertops

• Wall cladding

• Flooring

• Stair treads

• Commercial surfaces

The combination of a black background and gold veining creates a powerful focal point in any space.

Tropical Storm Quartzite should be cleaned with pH-neutral cleaning products. Because of its dark background, wiping the surface with a dry cloth after cleaning reduces the appearance of water marks.

Thanks to its quartzite structure, it is more resistant to acidic substances than marble. This is an advantage in kitchen applications.

Its high quartz content gives it a high surface hardness. In everyday use it is more resistant than marble.

Natural quartzite is highly resistant to heat. However, protective measures are recommended against prolonged, direct contact with extreme heat.

Thanks to its high mineral density and hardness, Tropical Storm Quartzite is a long-lasting natural stone. With correct installation and maintenance, its surface performance can be preserved.
