Explore the sustainability aspects of Dekton by Cosentino, including its production process and why it's a top choice for environmentally conscious clients
Sustainability is no longer just a consideration when designing beautiful, functional spaces- it's a priority. That’s why Dekton, a revolutionary surface by Cosentino, is quickly becoming a top choice for environmentally conscious clients. This innovative material not only delivers unparalleled durability and aesthetic versatility but is also created with a deep commitment to sustainability.
At Brix&Co, we prioritize working with materials that align with our values of quality, innovation, and environmental stewardship. Dekton is a natural fit for our custom furniture pieces, blending cutting-edge technology with eco-conscious practices to create a product that’s as beautiful as it is sustainable.
What is Dekton?
Dekton is a sophisticated blend of raw materials used in glass, porcelain, and quartz surfaces. Using Cosentino’s exclusive TSP (Technology of Sinterized Particles), these materials are fused under extreme heat and pressure, resulting in a surface that is ultra-compact, non-porous, and exceptionally durable.
Available in a wide array of colours and finishes, Dekton provides a timeless aesthetic that works seamlessly in both interior and exterior applications, from countertops to custom furniture pieces like the stunning tables crafted by Brix&Co.
The Sustainability of Dekton
1. Zero Waste Manufacturing
Cosentino’s production process is designed to minimize waste. By using up to 20% recycled materials in Dekton’s composition, the company reduces its reliance on virgin resources. Additionally, the cutting-edge manufacturing process ensures efficient material use, leaving little to no waste behind.
2. Carbon Neutral Certification
Dekton proudly holds a carbon-neutral certification for its entire life cycle, from extraction and production to end-of-life. This commitment is achieved through:
Energy Efficiency: Advanced technology optimizes energy use during production.
Renewable Energy: Cosentino relies on renewable energy sources for manufacturing.
Offsetting Emissions: The company actively offsets unavoidable emissions by investing in environmental projects.
3. Longevity and Low Maintenance
Durability is a cornerstone of sustainability. Dekton’s resistance to scratches, stains, UV rays, and extreme temperatures means it will last for decades without the need for replacement or intensive upkeep. This longevity reduces the overall environmental impact compared to materials that require frequent repair or replacement.
