Durability: Made for Everyday Living
Crescent Quartz surfaces are highly resistant to stains and bacterial growth. For spills, immediately wipe the area with a daily cleaner that is safe for Engineered Stone or mild detergent, then rinse off with clean water. A mixture of one (1) part mild detergent to five (5) parts warm tap water (50°C-60°C/122°F-140°F) is ideal for normal cleaning (both floorings and countertops). The surface should be cleaned daily in order to avoid the build-up of dirt and any chance of staining.
One of the characteristics that makes these surfaces stand out is their high impact resistance. However, users are recommended to avoid standing or putting excess weight on the surface, especially areas that due to fabrication, may be slightly weaker (pointed corners, fine edges, etc).
Crescent Quartz surfaces are designed and manufactured to withstand moderate heat, but it is not heat proof. We strongly recommend using trivets or hot plates to protect your surface from damage caused by sudden temperature changes, especially when using cooking units such as electric frying pans, crock pots, or roaster ovens. Do not expose the surface to open flames and avoid prolonged contact with very hot cooking appliances.
With a score of seven on the Mohs Hardness Scale, Crescent Quartz surfaces are highly resistant to scratch. However, to keep the surfaces in immaculate condition for years, always use a cutting board for food preparation. Never cut directly on a countertop surface.
Absolutely. Crescent is nonporous, so it won’t absorb liquids and is safe for preparing food.
Our UV Collection was designed specifically for outdoor use. While it is not necessary, it is advisable to shield the surface from prolonged direct sunlight with a sunshade cloth. Use protective pads to prevent direct contact with overheated tableware.
Maintenance Made Easy
No. Crescent never needs sealing – its durability is built in.
Crescent Quartz is easy to maintain. Just wipe with warm water and mild soap as needed. No polishing or special treatments required.
Use a soft cloth or paper towel with warm water and mild dish soap for everyday cleaning.
Crescent Quartz surfaces can be permanently damaged by prolonged exposure to strong chemicals and solvents. Do not use acetone, lacquer or paint thinner, glue stripper or any product containing trichloroethane or methylene chloride to clean your countertop.
For stubborn spills and stains, instead of a mild detergent, apply a mild, non-abrasive household cleaner with a neutral pH (between 6 & 8) to a damp soft cloth or non-abrasive sponge, then rinse thoroughly with clean water.
