The maintenance of cultured marble (artificial stone) products
Bathroom worktops (countertops with integrated washbasins), worktops under washbasins and other cultured marble products are designed solely for bathroom and washroom space.
To clean the surface of cultured marble products a smooth cleaning cloth moistened in a detergent solution is sufficient. It is generally recommended to use for washing and cleaning by:
- commercially available, liquid substances for maintenance of sanitary facilities
Following substances are not recommended to be used for cleaning surfaces of cultured marble:
- sharp objects
- abrasive pastes
- solvents
- acetone
- cleaning agents containing abrasive particles that might damage the compact surface glaze
It is also not recommended to use:
- hair dyes and nail polishes in contact with surfaces of cultured marble products
However, if hair dyes or nail polishes come into contact with surface of any cultured marble product, possible damage of the surface glaze stained with hair dye or nail polish can be prevented by immediate, thorough washing with a detergent solution (dishwashing liquid as a solution of clean water)..
Composition and properties of cultured marble
The cultured marble is an artificial stone. The products are cast into prepared molds from a mixture of natural limestone and polyester resin. The glossy, surface layer with required color or granite pattern is formed by a coating of synthetic glaze. After the product is removed from the molds at room temperature the products mature to required properties while they are finalized by manual treatments.
The cultured marble has excellent mechanical and physical properties to be used in bathrooms and washrooms. It absorbs neither water nor moisture, it is resistant to temperature changes, sunlight and household detergents intended for maintenance of sanitary facilities. The surface of washbasins is very smooth with thermal conductivity that holds the product at room temperature in the bathroom and its smooth surface does not feel cold to human touch.
