		Quartz is a man made product composed of natural quartz (93%) and resin 
		(7%). The natural quartz is ground and then mixed with resin and 
		different pigments to create a great variety of different colors and 
		patterns. Quartz, differently than granite, does not require sealing, 
		because it is a non-porous material, which also makes it stain resitant 
		and scratch resistant. Unlike granite, quartz is not as heat resistant 
		due to the presence of resin (typically epoxy or polyester), so the use 
		of trivets is recommended. 
		Most quartz come with a limited warranty, some of them with a Lifetime 
		Limited Warranty. 
		Quartz is easy to maintain and care for, mild dish soap or a specific 
		product dedicated to quartz can be used.
