Silestone Doradus

Product Description

Silestone Doradus is a black quartz stone with incredible depth and colour consistency that contains randomly scattered golden veins on its surface. Doradus from Silestone brings the unrivalled beauty of natural marbles such as the timeless Black and Gold marble from Pakistan or Sahara Gold marble to interior spaces that require surfaces that are extremely resistant to stains, scratches, heat and impact with minimal maintenance requirements.

Silestone Doradus is made with a mix of approximately 95% pure natural quartz and a mix of materials that result in a non-porous surface with consistency from slab to slab achieving continuity across different areas and thicknesses of 12mm 20mm and 30mm that will satisfy the needs of a different array of projects and specifications.

As with all quartz surfaces made by Cosentino, Silestone Doradus comes in different finishes with colour and textures, offering is an endless range of options with physical and chemical properties that are the result of years of ongoing research. The advanced production system permits extreme compaction, which means it is a material with low porosity. Liquids, stains and acids are not a problem for Silestone.

Silestone quartz is also an almost unbreakable surface. It is stain-free, mark-free and scratch-free. The resistant pieces of Silestone® are alive and continue to be enjoyed over time, going beyond the surface. With low absorption and minimal joints, Silestone is a perfect splash-proof surface for kitchens, wet rooms and bathrooms.

Silestone Doradus quartz has outstanding mechanical properties such as hardness, resistance to impact and scratching, low absorption and a unique anti-bacterial property making it extremely hygienic and ideal for areas in which cleanliness comes second to no other requirement such as food preparation, healthcare facilities, laboratories, universities and schools.

Silestone Doradus quartz is available in both tiles and slab formats with dimensions of 3040x1380mm which allow for large seamless designs that require surfaces that offer sleek designs and aesthetics.

Silestone surfaces are available in a Suede finish; this tactile texture surface is also adaptable to more traditional and/or industrial settings and features. It also offers a Volcano Finish, which has a heavy texture which will suit contemporary as well as traditional and industrial spaces.
