A fresh Silestone color, FFROM 01, is a new, more sustainable, quartz countertop surface with a gray surface speckled with white to create a subtle yet intricate pattern that adds depth to the surface.
Coming from the Earthic collection, this innovative Silestone countertop option is a sustainable surface with a maximum of 10% silica, created through a complex production process that utilizes recycled glass, PET, bio-resin, and Dekton fragments. The solid stone surface is still quartz-based and is the result of a new combination of recycled components and selected minerals produced through an innovative industrial process.
How is FFROM 01 Silestone sustainable?
The Silestone FFROM 01 countertop incorporates up to 30% recycled components. The new silestone color is manufactured with 99% recycled water and 100% certified renewable electric energy.
Components of More Sustainable Silestone Countertops
Using recycled Dekton, the FFROM 01 Sile stone surface reduces the extraction of raw materials. This limits soil erosion from mining and significantly reduces CO2 emissions.
FFROM 01 also incorporates 16% – 23% post-consumer bio-resin derived from vegetable oil and recycled cooking oil. In the production process, this step re-uses components that would otherwise be discarded.
Earthic countertops uses post-industrial recycled glass to further avoid extraction of raw materials, which again prevents soil erosion and reduces CO2 emissions when producing FFROM 01.
The use of Recycled PET (plastic bottles are transformed into distinctive shapes) to create the FFROM 01 countertop surface reduces CO2 emissions and other greenhouse gases.
