A fresh Silestone color, FFROM 03, is a new, more sustainable, quartz countertop surface with an entrancing texture that uses recycled PET in the material to resemble the night sky or unique natural stone.
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 03 Silestone sustainable?
The Silestone FFROM 03 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 03 Sile stone surface reduces the extraction of raw materials. This limits soil erosion from mining and significantly reduces CO2 emissions.
FFROM 03 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 03.
The use of Recycled PET (plastic bottles are transformed into distinctive shapes) to create the FFROM 03 countertop surface reduces CO2 emissions and other greenhouse gases.
