  • Features of processing natural and artificial stone

An edge is used to protect the edge of the countertops from moisture and mechanical stress. This detail also has an aesthetic value, as it gives the product a finished look. There are various options for processing the ends, which depend on the material from which the tabletop is made. A special edge is glued onto them or a metal bar is installed. The ends of stone countertops are processed in a special way.

 

Types of edging for natural stone processing

The processing of the end face of the table top is performed using cutters. Depending on them, the corner of the stone surface is constrained. A natural stone countertop will have an unfinished look if the ends are not processed. When ordering an individual kitchen project, you can choose the types of edging that will look best not only on furniture, but also in the general interior. They have such qualities as:

  • durability;
  • impact resistance;
  • hygiene;
  • integrity;
  • aesthetics.

The following types of edging can be distinguished when processing natural stone:

  • The straight end is recommended for those who prefer the classics. He will add respectability and aristocracy to the interior, without focusing on details.
  • Semicircular and beveled edges are suitable for homes with small children, as it eliminates sharp corners.
  • Radial machining of the butt end is possible within 5-15 mm.
  • Curly processing is chosen by those who prefer original and non-standard design.

 

The shapes of the ends can also be indicated in the form of letters:

  • The Z-shaped edge is a 45 degree beveled surface;
  • H-end is made in a classic design in the form of a step;
  • The F-shape is quite difficult to make, but it looks impressive;
  • The V-shaped hem is characterized by rounded soft shapes;
  • A-butt is a rounding with a certain radius;
  • O-this profile looks very rich, but it is difficult to execute;
  • L-is a kind of rock falling down. Great for both kitchen countertops and bar counters and window sills. This type of edging is safer for small children;
  • D-lack of corners gives it a surprisingly aesthetic look. The beveled edge is visually refined, hiding the standard thickness of the worktop and maintaining mechanical strength.

For processing the edges, various chamfers are used, which protect the surface and make it less traumatic. They are the prevention of cracks and chips. Chamfers can be curly, classic, quarter or half circle. Their choice depends on the style of the countertop and the overall interior design.

 

Features of processing natural and artificial stone

The processing of various types of natural and artificial stone has its own characteristics, which are associated with the characteristics of the material.

  • Granite is highly durable, so you can choose any type of edge. Cracks and chips rarely appear on the surface, even with intensive use.
  • Marble is a softer and more pliable material. Therefore, experts do not recommend the execution of curly profiles on it. Cracks may appear on the countertop both during operation and during operation. For processing marble ends, it is better to opt for straight and clear lines.
  • Quartz stone (quartz composite stone, quartz agglomerate) is a combination of natural quartz mineral, high quality polyester resin and color pigments. Moreover, the share of natural quartz, one of the most durable natural materials, is 91-93%, depending on the manufacturer, the remaining 7-9%, respectively, are resins and pigments. Sometimes a quartz stone is called an artificial stone, but it should not be confused with an artificial (acrylic) stone, which does not contain natural ingredients.
  • Acrylic stone (solid surface) is a modern composite material. The main components of artificial stone are acrylic resins Methyl methacrylate (MMA) and Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), aluminum hydroxide, natural mineral fillers and pigment additives. Often referred to simply as an artificial stone. Polymethyl methacrylate is one of the most expensive components of acrylic stone, which provides its strength, durability and aesthetic qualities. The more it is in the composition, the more expensive and better the stone. Acrylic stone becomes plastic under the influence of high temperature – 150-200 ° C, as it is a thermoplastic, which allows the use of thermoforming technology for its molding.
  • Dekton. This material makes it possible to install large format parts without cuts and seams, creating uniform spaces that harmoniously integrate into different styles. Dekton is based on some of the hardest minerals on the earth’s surface. There is no any chemistry and clay raw materials. Highest flexural strength. The lowest abrasion rate. Dekton creates clean, tactile surfaces. They are resistant to the usual risks in the kitchen and are durable. The edge of this type of material can only be straight.
  • The cost of processing the ends depends on the thickness and properties of the stone. Curly details are more difficult to process than straightforward ones, but as a result, the kitchen owner gets an original kitchen set that will attract the attention of guests at home.
  • To give the countertop an attractive appearance, glues from various materials are used. They can be made of plastic, wood or even metal. Installation of these elements allows you to make the side edge of the countertop thicker, protects it from mechanical stress, moisture and other negative factors.

The edge of a countertop made of natural or artificial stone can be processed both at the stage of manufacturing the kitchen unit and later. There are various forms of edges, the choice of which depends on the preferences of the owners and the functionality of the furniture. In addition to processing the edge with special technologies, you can choose an edge that will be glued directly to the end of the countertop. It is made of PVC, ABS, plastic, veneer and other materials. Furniture edges come in various colors and textures, so they will look harmonious on any surface. They are easy to install and require little maintenance.
