All stone in the home is a sign of quality. Stone surfaces are very "forgiving" and best of all, can be restored, polished or repaired. Consider the durability of natural and engineered stone in the home. The Marble Man specialise in stone polishing, repairs and sealing. www.themarbleman.com.au 1300 627 626 will always recommend stone!

Thank you for some concrete information. Those samples could actually be different batches of the one colour. The flecks and shading are almost identical. Is the new version the low silica option following legislative changes? If so, you’ve been caught up in a change that was beyond the Manufacturers and your control. It would also explain the same name being used, something typically not done because it causes problems. PS you assumed I’m a guy. I’m not but I do have 25+ years of dealing with contracts, vendors and projects. Half my life is spent trying to get suppliers to do things they may not want to do, and it all comes back to the paperwork particularly the disclaimers and exclusions. I can’t see any resolution for you.

Got my answer - non combustible material such as, natural stone - marble, granite or concrete etc.

not recommend this brand at all !! we had bencthop in Cimento just for 2 month and already stain everywhere and hard to clean. call their rep come out and they try to clean for an hour and does not help. request a discount or refund and they been very rude to us and told us just go to VCAT they don't care!!!! Very disappoint why my stonemason are recommended this brand to us. we should just choose caesarstone even pay a bit more money but you can have service & quality.
