Coloured quartz is made from pyrite-free, round-grain quartz sand, synthetic resin and pigments with the best optical qualities. Each individual particle is uniformly coated with 2-K synthetic resin.
Five standard particle sizes are available, in more than 700 colours and combinations. This optical diversity makes coloured quartz ideal for high-quality, decorative applications.
