Refresh your kitchen with this durable and attractive natural quartz sink from Empire. This sink is designed to withstand any and all use. Natural sound deadening keeps the sink quiet when filling, and the ultra-smooth nonporous surface helps ward off bacteria, dirt and stains to keep the sink clean and sanitary. Maximum protection against heat (up to 650 degrees Fahrenheit), scratches, and stains. Quartz is one of the hardest, most durable materials – only diamond is harder than quartz. Microfine quartz material is nonporous with ultra-smooth surface that repels dirt food liquid, stains and prevents the spread of bacteria. Sleek corner radius ensures easy clean-up. Resilient Non-Fading Color: Sink is colored all the way through, with UV protection for a rich and consistent hue that will not fade or discolor over time. Pots, pans, and dishes may cause ‘scratches’ or marks on sink. Clean marks with warm water and soft cloth/sponge, or kitchen ‘eraser’ sponges. Limited lifetime manufacturer warranty
