Not to be confused with solid granite, granite composite is an engineered blend of crushed quartz, stone dust, and acrylic resins. The result is a highly durable, low-maintenance, stone-like material that is much lighter than solid granite, but still fit for the challenge of handling your everyday demands. It’s commonly used to manufacture top-quality kitchen sinks, but you may also find countertops in this resilient, man-made material.
