Why We Love Cambria Quartz: A Deeper Look at the Detail

At Decker Design, we're all about giving you the best. When it comes to countertops, that means talking about Cambria Quartz. It’s a material that’s not just beautiful, but also smart and well-made. Here's a quick rundown on why it's a top choice for your home.

What's in It? Ingredient Transparency

Ever wonder what a quartz countertop is actually made of? With Cambria, the answer is simple and reassuring. Their surfaces are made from 93% pure, natural quartz, one of the hardest minerals on Earth. The rest is a blend of high-quality pigments and a small amount of resin to bind it all together. This isn't a secret recipe; it’s a transparent approach that ensures you're getting a safe, durable, and high-quality product.

Tough as a Rock: The Durability of Natural Quartz

The high percentage of natural quartz is the secret to Cambria's incredible strength. Quartz is a seven on the Mohs hardness scale, making it much harder and more durable than granite or marble. This means your countertop will be incredibly resistant to chips, scratches, and cracks from everyday use. You can trust that your Cambria surface will stand up to the hustle and bustle of a busy kitchen for years and years.

A Healthy Kitchen: Food-Safe and Non-Porous

One of the biggest benefits of Cambria's engineered quartz is that it's completely non-porous. Unlike natural stones like granite that have tiny holes and crevices, Cambria's surface is solid. This means it won't absorb liquids, spill, or harbor bacteria. It's certified by NSF International as a food-safe surface, so you can prep food directly on your countertop with peace of mind. It's a clean, hygienic choice that makes maintaining a healthy kitchen effortless.
