Quartz is one of the earth’s strongest and most abundant materials, and its inherent properties make quartz countertops extremely durable.

　　The quartz manufacturing process allows companies, including LX Hausys, to create innovative designs and colors that can’t be found in granite. The manufacturing process creates a nonporous surface that offers natural hygienic properties, creating a clean surface ideal for kitchen food prep and busy bathroom routines. Unlike granite, quartz does not require sealing, minimizing maintenance costs and demands.

　　화강암 is a naturally occurring stone mined from quarries and cut, polished, and fabricated into slabs. For years, granite was the go-to choice for residential countertops, but advances in quartz production have made quartz the most popular and top-rated countertop material. Granite offers a natural look with each slab having unique colors and patterns. As a natural stone, granite is durable and beautiful, making it an excellent material for various applications, including countertops, vanities, sculptures, and more. Granite resists scratches, chipping, and chemical stains. However, granite countertops are naturally porous and require regular, annual sealing to protect the surface from mold, germs, and moisture accumulation beneath the surface. 　　석영과 화강암 중 어느 것이 더 비쌉니까?
