overview

the story

ECO by Cosentino® is a beautiful, durable surface ideal as a substitute for natural or engineered stone. It is made of 75% recycled content composed of post-industrial or post-consumer materials and is bound by an environmentally friendly resin which comes in part from corn oil.

ECO by Cosentino countertops are made from post-consumer and post industrial sources, saving tons of waste from landfills each year. While the slabs are being made, the manufacturer even captures and reuses the water for the process.

The raw materials used in the countertop are mixed with Cosentino’s resin made of 22% corn oil. The mixture is poured and compressed under extreme pressure (3000 lbs per square centimeter) removing all air pockets and creating a compact dense slab. The slabs are baked and left to cool. Afterwards the slab is calibrated and polished with a diamond blade to add shine and luster. The finished product is an eco-friendly, durable, and stylish surface material suitable to be used in any kitchen or bath project.

performance

The resin and material combination of ECO by Cosentino surfaces makes them very strong and resistant to stains and scratch resistant. These surfaces do not require a sealer for protection.

As no surface is impermeable, always use a trivet for hot items and a cutting board to avoid cutting directly on the surface.

ECO by Cosentino countertops do not require sealing, thereby eliminating the need of sealers that may contain VOCs.

on the planet

All recycled content comes from independent sustainable waste management organizations where it undergoes an extensive cleaning process which ensures that all glues, silicones and other hazardous materials have been properly removed.

Recycled material includes:
- Mirrors salvaged from houses, building and factories
- Glass from windshields, windows and bottles
- Granulated glass from consumer recycling practices
- Porcelain from china, tiles, sinks, and toilets
During the manufacturing process, 94% of the water used is recycled, thus minimizing the consumption of a very important resource. All of the minerals used in the production of ECO by Cosentino come from quarries that are fully restored under strict stewardship programs and the manufacturing process is strictly controlled to avoid emissions of any harmful particles into the air.

ECO by Cosentino can contribute to LEED certification.

General Precautions
To prolong the life of your knives, always use a cutting board. ECO by Cosentino surfaces are very durable and are scratch resistant, but using knives directly on the surface may dull the sharpness of most knives.

Difficult Spils
Clean all spills immediately. To remove difficult spills, soak the area for 10 minutes with a gentle pH balanced house cleaner or regular soap and water. Then rinse and clean away with a soft cloth. For stains that harden as they dry, such as food and gum, remove by gently scraping off the surface (using a blade or putty remover), and then clean using warm water and soap and a soft cloth. Do not use any chemical sealant products.

Extreme Heat
ECO by Cosentino surfaces perform highly against heat and can withstand moderately high temperatures for brief periods of time without being damaged. As with any stone surface, however, certain exposure to heat may cause cracks due to thermal shock. Always use a trivet or a cutting board to place hot items on ECO by Cosentino surfaces. Do not use crock pots, electric skillets or other hot items directly on ECO by Cosentino surfaces.

Harsh Chemicals
The following chemicals will harm ECO by Cosentino surfaces: Drano®, Liquid Plumr® oven cleaners and floor strippers. DO NOT use these or any other harsh chemicals on your ECO by Cosentino surface.

Sunlight Exposure
Continuous long-term exposure to direct sunlight (UV Rays) may result in slight discoloration of ECO by Cosentino surfaces.
