Quartzite Countertops

Our Quartzite Countertops

KBR stocks 9 different quartzite colors. We continually refresh our current inventory by working with our suppliers to ensure we get beautiful and bold slabs given the luxurious nature of this product. Quartzite is often more expensive than quartz or granite given the way it is mined and the fabrication process.

Why Choose Quartzite

Extremely Durable

Quartzite is different than granite in that it is a metaphoric rock that is primarily made up of quartz. It is typically harder than granite, measuring a 7 vs a 6 on the Mohs scale (Diamond is 10).

Scratch Resistant

Quartzite has many of the same benefits as granite (resistant to scratching and durable under extreme heat) however one major variance exists, etching. Etching is caused when acidic cleaners are used on the stone, leaving dull marks or spots

100s of Options

Quartzite comes in 100s of colors. Like higher end granites, quartzites are known for their natural beauty. They’re typically lighter in appearance than granite and their natural formation creates truly unique patterns that create exquisite, one-of-a-kind looks to fit your personal style.
