Silestone® by Cosentino: Redefining Sustainable Surfaces for the Future of Design

For over three decades, Cosentino has shaped the way we design kitchens, bathrooms, and home interiors. Now, with Silestone®, the brand once again redefines what’s possible in surface innovation, this time with sustainability and performance at its core.

Silestone® is not just another countertop material; it’s part of a new category: Mineral Hybriq+® Surfaces. Developed through years of research, its revolutionary composition blends premium minerals with recycled materials, while drastically reducing crystalline silica content. The result is a hybrid mineral surface that is as durable as it is mindful of the environment.

At the heart of this innovation lies Hybriq+® technology, launched in 2020. This breakthrough process has transformed production standards across the industry. Today, every Silestone® colour is manufactured with low-silica content and proudly labelled with its exact percentage, an unprecedented step towards transparency and safety.

But the technology doesn’t stop there. Hybriq+® ensures that each slab is created using 99% reused water, 100% renewable energy, and at least 20% recycled materials. It’s a process that marries design with responsibility, creating surfaces that not only stand the test of time but also honour the planet.

From the industrial-inspired Loft Collection to the sun-washed palettes of Sunlit Days, Silestone® proves that performance and beauty can live side by side. Since 2023, 85% of Silestone® surfaces feature less than 40% crystalline silica, with 15% containing less than 10% – a remarkable achievement that sets a new benchmark for the global market.

With Silestone®, Cosentino invites designers and homeowners alike to create spaces that endure, crafted with innovation, sustainability, and a vision for the future.
