Caesarstone, the original manufacturer of quartz surfaces, announced today that their recycled product has been honored by the NKBA - National Kitchen and Bath Association - with the 2011 Design Award for the Best Green Sustainable Product in the kitchen and bath industry.
Caesarstone Canada was recognized for this achievement on Saturday, February 5th, 2011 at the NKBA Gala during the awards ceremony. The event was held at the Liberty Grand in Toronto.
Eco-Friendly and Responsible
Caesarstone, the original quartz surface manufacturer, is proud to offer seven colors that contain recycled materials. Caesarstone's Mosaici Carbone, Mosaici Marrone, Ruby Reflections, Pacific Reflections, Quartz Reflections, Smoky Ash and Chocolate Truffle, all have the distinction of being part of this impressive recycled line-up. Colors from this innovative collection contain 17 to 42% first quality reclaimed quartz from the fabrication process (post-production recycled) and post-consumer recycled glass and mirrors. The high recycled content of this eco-friendly product range reduces the demand for primal raw materials, protecting the planet's precious resources.
By choosing a Caesarstone surface, consumers can benefit from the natural and environmentally friendly attributes of a quartz surface. Its nonporous nature prevents growth of surface mold and microbes and ensures a healthier environment, while the low-maintenance requirements of the surface decrease the use of harmful detergents in the ecosystem.
Committed to a Cleaner, Safer and Better Quality Environment
Caesarstone takes pride in being the first quartz surfacing company worldwide to carry global standard ISO 14001 certification for environmental protection in its industry. This means that in and outside of their plant, everything done is according to its environmental management policy whereby they maintain safety standards to protect all workers, observe eco-friendly production processes, and do their utmost to work only with eco-friendly suppliers. CaesarStone's continuous mission is to keep the planet as beautiful as its products.
