Description:
1. raw material preparation
2. mixing
3. molding
4. compression molding
5. curing
Quick Detail:
The primary component of quartz stone is quartz crystals, which usually make up about 90% of the material. Additionally, polyester or epoxy resin is used as a binder, along with pigments and other additives. The first step is to gather all these raw materials.
The quartz crystals, resin, and additives are mixed in specific proportions. This is usually done in large mixers to ensure an even distribution of all components. The mixing ratios can affect the final product's color, texture, and performance.
The mixed material is poured into specific molds. The shape and size of the molds can be customized according to customer requirements. It is essential to ensure that the molds are clean to avoid any impurities affecting the final product's quality.

Advantage:
Artificial stone is a new type of environmental protection composite material, compared with traditional building materials such as stainless steel and ceramics, artificial stone has diverse functions, rich colors and a wider range of applications.
The solid surface material of artificial stone is combined with resin and aluminum hydroxide in a special process, which releases water molecules in the case of high temperature and heat, and has the function of flame retardant and heat absorption.
Tested by the national authority, the ingredients contained are non-toxic, harmless, non-radioactive, environmental protection and health, and are truly green and safe.
Compared with other building materials, the toughness of the solid surface material of artificial stone is better, it is not easy to break, and the whole is dense without holes, leaving no chance for bacteria to multiply, touching the skin is warm, not easy to wear, hide dirt, decay and other advantages, it is an economic and durable good product.
