Changing the worktop in your kitchen or bathroom can completely transform the space, and opting for sintered stone is a smart, modern decision. This cutting-edge material has conquered interior design thanks to its strength, aesthetics and versatility.
Still doubting it? Here are five reasons that will make you fall in love with this revolutionary material.
1. Exceptional strength and durability
Sintered stone is designed to stand the test of time without losing its beauty, day after day, even when faced with the challenges of everyday use. Its high-temperature manufacturing process guarantees extreme resistance to heat, scratches, impacts… and best of all, to visual wear and tear.
Imagine a top where quick breakfasts and impromptu dinners are prepared day after day, or a bathroom where steam rises after a hot shower in winter. In these everyday living spaces, sintered stone not only holds its own, it shines.
Its low porosity protects against stains, liquids and moisture, making it an ideal choice for both high traffic areas and environments constantly exposed to water.
2. Natural beauty and variety of finishes
At Ascale, through porcelain tiles we seek to reproduce the beauty of natural stone with an astonishing realism through our sintered stone slabs.
Thanks to its versatility and variety of finishes, it adapts to any decorative style, from classic to contemporary. Ascale’s collections encompass multiple trends to satisfy all tastes: the robustness and texture of Bodytech, the timeless elegance of Luxury, the sophisticated charm of Marbles, the naturalness of Stone, the urban sobriety of Cement, the freshness of Natura finishes, the audacity of Metal and the essential simplicity of the Essentials collection.
3. Almost no maintenance
Forget about complex treatments or special products. Sintered stone is incredibly easy to clean, requiring only water and neutral soap to keep it spotless. Its surface does not retain bacteria or mould, making it a hygienic and safe choice for the kitchen and bathroom.
On a day-to-day basis, this ease of maintenance becomes a real advantage. For example, if you often cook and spill sauce, oil or even wine on the worktop, simply wipe with a damp cloth and a little soap and everything will be restored to its original state, without stains or marks. In the bathroom, the constant steam from hot showers does not alter the surface, and if drops of make-up, toothpaste or creams fall, they are wiped away without a trace.
Even outdoors, where dust, leaves or rain can make surfaces dirty, cleaning is as simple as spraying with water and wiping with a cloth. And if you have small children or pets that run around the house and leave unexpected footprints or stains, you don’t have to worry: sintered stone does not scratch easily and stands up to daily use with elegance.
This material not only beautifies your spaces, but also simplifies your routine. It is a perfect combination of aesthetics and functionality that adapts to the rhythm of real life.
4. Sustainability and respect for the environment
Manufactured from natural materials and with a process that minimises environmental impact, sintered stone is an environmentally friendly option. Its long service life reduces the need for replacement, encouraging more responsible and sustainable consumption.
5. Customised and exclusive design
With sintered stone, every worktop is a work of art. The large format slabs allow you to create continuous surfaces with no visible joints, giving a contemporary and elegant touch.
If you are thinking of renovating your worktop, don’t hesitate any longer. Stone offers a perfect combination of resistance, beauty and sustainability, transforming any space into a corner of elegance and distinction. Discover the Ascale collections and take your design to the next level.
