Mineral surfaces, an exceptional choice

Mineral surfaces stand out as an exceptional choice for your custom kitchen and bathroom countertops.

Dekton® and Silestone® are two high-end materials suited to the most demanding requirements, for both kitchens and bathrooms. Inspired by the beauty of natural stone, they offer a wide variety of colors, textures, and finishes, while ensuring excellent resistance to daily use. Dekton® stands out for its exceptional technical performance, particularly its resistance to heat, scratches, and stains. Silestone®, on the other hand, captivates with the richness of its decors and the realism of its veining, which extends into the edges for a particularly elegant finish. These two materials allow us to create custom designs combining aesthetics, durability, and ease of maintenance. Each custom mineral surface countertop is manufactured to the exact dimensions of your space in our Belgian workshop. Depending on your desires, we can also offer you other materials for your countertops.

Frequently asked questions about mineral surfaces

What is the difference between Dekton® and Silestone®? +

These two custom mineral surfaces are manufactured by the same producer, Cosentino, but serve different purposes. Dekton® is an ultracompact surface with extreme technical performance: it resists direct heat, UV rays, and the most violent impacts. Silestone®, composed of natural quartz, focuses more on aesthetics with realistic veining, very rich decors, and a surface with enhanced hygienic properties.

Are these materials truly resistant to heat and scratches? +

Dekton® offers exceptional heat resistance: you can place hot pans or dishes straight from the oven directly on it without risk of marking or deterioration. Silestone® is also very resistant to scratches and everyday stains, thanks to its natural hardness. In both cases, these materials are designed for intensive use, making them particularly suitable choices for frequently used kitchens.

How do you maintain a custom mineral surface? +

This is one of the great advantages of these materials: maintenance is minimal. A simple damp cloth or a mild cleaning product is sufficient for common dirt. The non-porous surface of Dekton® and Silestone® does not retain stains or bacteria, which significantly facilitates daily hygiene. Avoid abrasive or highly acidic products that could dull the finish in the long term.

Can a custom mineral surface be used in the bathroom? +

Absolutely. Mineral surfaces are perfectly suited for the bathroom: their resistance to humidity, cosmetic products, and temperature variations makes them ideal materials for countertops. Their mineral appearance naturally fits in with current contemporary bathroom trends, featuring veining that imitates marble or natural stone with incomparable ease of maintenance.

Can I choose my color, texture, and finish? +

Yes, the choice is very wide. Both Dekton® and Silestone® offer numerous collections with varied colors, textures, and finishes — matte, polished, satin, concrete effect, marble effect, stone effect. At JOA, we guide you in the selection based on your interior style, the desired ambiance, and the technical constraints of your project.
