Stone is not completely heat resistant, i.e. it can stand the heat only temporarily and may crack as a result of a thermal shock or in manmade stone a discolouration may appear. We strongly recommend using heat mats when placing hot objects on your stone worktop. Although stone is scratch resistant, we still recommend using cutting boards to avoid possible damages.
It is highly recommended that you remain vigilant when it comes to cleaning up spillages of common household items such as tea, coffee, wine, vinegar, fruit juice, cooking sauces, etc. It is far easier to clean up these spills when they happen before they become dried on the surface and stubborn to remove. To clean your stone we recommend warm soapy water. If you’re looking for a deeper clean we can recommend products specifically made for natural and/or man-made stone. Avoid using products containing bleach or high acidity levels as this may damage the stone surface. Abrasive materials may also damage the stone surface.
