- Stain-Resistant
- Scratch-Resistant
- Heat Resistant
LG Viatera® is made primarily of natural quartz (93%) which is an impervious crystalline mineral that is particularly resistant to absorption. When adhered with the polyester resins, LG Viatera® becomes a material that is non-porous and extremely stain resistant, qualities that are unique to quartz materials. Unlike other products, LG Viatera® does not require the application of sealant to ensure its non-porous attribute.
Natural quartz, the majority of the LG Viatera® makeup, is classified as the fourth hardest mineral on earth, by Moh's Hardness scale, a scientific tool utilized to measure the composition of minerals. The only materials with a higher ranking are topaz, sapphire, and diamond. This quality makes LG Viatera® nearly impossible to scratch or chip.
Although LG Viatera is Heat Resistant, it is recommended that trivets and/or hot pads be used when working with hot pots, pans or any other kitchen items that produce a high amount of heat.
Advantages of LG Viatera® vs. Granite
LG Viatera® offers unparalleled quality to any design project. Due to the clarity of the quartz stone, and the patented, advanced technology of polyester resins and colorfast pigments, LG Viatera® provides a durable surface that is non-porous, and more resistant to heat, scratches, and stains than other products. All of the 12 colors were inspired by the natural beauty of the earth and are backed by the industry's only 15-year warranty.
