MASALINA is a natural, quartz surfacing product that has a variety of uses in your home or business such as countertops, floor tile, vanities, fireplace surrounds, wet bars, showers, etc. MASALINA is pure, natural quartz, one of the hardest and most common minerals on Earth. Some of MASALINA’s designs have the natural look and feel of granite, marble and other quarried stones, but features superior performance because of its strength and durability. It is nonporous and will not absorb food and liquids like granite does. And best of all, it is maintenance-free.

2.How does MASALINA compare to granite? 

MASALINA is 93% quartz, a natural stone. Quartz is the extremely hard mineral that gives MASALINA its strength. Granite is only about 40% to 60% quartz, along with other softer minerals and impurities. With MASALINA, you get the look and feel of granite, but receive greater strength and the benefit of it being nonporous and maintenance free. Just wash it with warm water, and use a mild soap if desired. BiyuStone is stain resistant and never needs sealing or reconditioning. Granite is a porous stone and needs to be sealed regularly with a chemical treatment. It can absorb liquids and food, risking potential staining and bacterial growth within the countertop.

3.How is MASALINA different from other quartz surfaces? 

MASALINA is the Chinese Manufactory in the quartz surfaces business. MASALINA's design options are also significantly different, reflecting our knowledge and responsiveness to the marketplace. Additionally, MASALINA is a family-owned company with more than 7 years of manufacturing experience.

4.How does MASALINA’s price compareto other natural stone or solid surface competitors?

What does it cost? Generally, MASALINA prices are comparable to granite and other stone surfaces. Our trade customers such as kitchen and bath dealers, fabricators, and contractors establish MASALINA retail prices. MASALINA works hard to provide simple pricing and all MASALINA designs are sold at the same price.

5.Is MASALINA a natural stone? 

Yes. MASALINA is pure natural quartz. Quartz is the extremely hard mineral that gives MASALINA its strength. Granite is only about 40% to 60% quartz, along with other softer minerals and impurities. Our unique process results in a natural stone product of uncommon beauty and superior strength. It's stronger than granite and is nonporous.

6.Is MASALINA made or manufactured in a plant? 

The MASALINA facility produces natural quartz into slabs by combining pure quartz with a small amount of pigment and resin. Through the recombining process, we are able to recreate slabs that are nonporous, strong and compact. 

7.What range of MASALINA products are available?

9.Does MASALINA require care and maintenance? 

No, keeping with its care-free promise, MASALINA requires no sealing, polishing or reconditioning…ever. Simply wipe with warm water and use mild soap if desired. Due to its nonporous nature, and unlike granite, it does NOT require regular sealing and is stain resistant. 

10.Is MASALINA resistant to surface damage? 

MASALINA is durable and more resistant to surface damage than other stone. However, all stone can be damaged by force and no stone is chip-proof. Objects hitting edges, particularly at sinks or dishwashers, may cause chips. Though a minor knife slip will dull the knife and not harm MASALINA, no stone surface is scratch-proof. Surface markings are more visible on monotone designs than multi-colored surfaces.

11.Does MASALINA withstand heat?

Can I put a hot pan or pot on it? Natural stone surfaces can be damaged by sudden and/or rapid change of temperature, especially near the edges as well as direct and/or sustained heating of the top. MASALINA may not withstand the direct transfer of heat from pots and pans and other cooking units such as electric frying pans and griddles, and some crock-pots or roaster ovens and heat lamps. Therefore, the use of a hot pad or trivet is always recommended to prevent heating the product. 

12.Is MASALINA resistant to staining? 

MASALINA's nonporous and nonabsorbent surface is resistant to staining and eliminates the need for any sealing. Its nonporous surface also greatly reduces the potential for bacterial growth from food absorbing into your countertop.

13.Does the colour go all the way through the MASALINA product? 

Yes, MASALINA's natural quartz and rich colors go all the way through the material. 

14.Is MASALINA a green product? 

MASALINA is committed to the responsible stewardship of our natural resources. That is why we produce a highly durable and stable material. MASALINA is certified by GREENGUARD as a low-emitting product for indoor air quality and is suitable for school environments. MASALINA has also been thoroughly tested for radon by Air Quality Sciences, Inc. These tests have independently confirmed that MASALINA surfaces have no harmful emissions of any kind.

15.How do I Care for my MASALINA Surfaces? 

Our quartz surfaces are highly resistant to just about everything you can throw at them, refusing to crack, chip or stain. They are also more heat resistant than granite, marble and limestone – with a capacity to resist temperatures as high as 150 ̊ C. Maintaining their glorious luster for years to come is easy– a splash of mild detergent is all that’s required. 

16.Is MASALINA safe for food preparation? 

Yes, GMBYSTONE is nonporous and is NSF* 51 certified for food and splash zones in commercial kitchens. There is no safer countertop for food preparation. * NSF International is The Public Health and Safety Company.
