Product Description
Caesarstone® is the original engineered quartz surface. Use it as an
attractive, versatile, and distinctive finish for residential, commercial and
institutional buildings. Caesarstone is tough enough to withstand wear
and tear on just about any interior surface, and beautiful enough for
every design scheme.
Use Caesarstone for:
• Countertops and backsplashes
• Shower and tub surrounds
• Lavatory and sinks
• Interior wall cladding
• Table and desk tops
• Wainscots and wall bases
• Toilet compartment partitions
• Fireplace mantles and surrounds*
• Elevator cab walls
• Service counters
• Stair and mezzanine railing systems*
Caesarstone outperforms natural stone. It has four times more
flexural strength and two times more impact resistance than
granite. It exceeds the standards for marble by even greater
margins. Caesarstone also provides greater consistency than
ordinary stone that is veined and prone to flaws.

* Some creative applications may not be covered
by Caesarstone’s Residential Lifetime Warranty.
Please refer to your fabricator and our warranty
guidelines for further details.
Because of Caesarstone’s superior strength and durability, you may be able to use thinner
materials to save weight, or larger pieces to reduce the number of joints. Either way,
you save money with a simplified fabrication and installation process. Furthermore,
Caesarstone is virtually maintenance free. Its quartz aggregate makes Caesarstone harder
and more scratch resistant than either granite or marble, and its high-quality polymer
binders make it non-porous and highly resistant to stains.
Caesarstone keeps its good looks without sealants or waxes and meets the stringent
sanitation requirements of restaurants, hospitals, and schools.
Caesarstone Performance
• Beautiful and durable
• Strong, yet flexible
• Scratch resistant
• Highly stain resistant
• Resistant to many chemicals,
acids and solvents

Typical Uses:
Minimum recommended for countertops, partitions, and tile.
Use when greater strength or thicker slabs are required.
Slab Size:
120 inches (3.10m) long, 56½ inches (1.44m) wide.
Limitations Caesarstone is recommended for interior use only.
Intense Heat: Caesarstone tolerates brief exposures to moderately hot temperatures.
Trivets or hot pads should always be used.
Chemicals: Avoid contact with products containing trichloroethane or methylene
chloride (such as paint removers or strippers), abrasives, alkaline levels with a pH
greater than 8, hydrofluoric acid, liquid bluing, gentian violet, and aggressive cleaning
compounds like oven or grill cleaners.
Acids: Caesarstone is not affected by solutions of common acids including hydrochloric,
muriatic, and sulfuric acids. In concentrated solutions, after exposures of 24 hours, some
acids such as nitric acid will discolor Caesarstone, though they will not compromise the
strength of the material. Hydrofluoric acid spills should be cleaned immediately because
it will react with quartz in Caesarstone. In the event of accidental exposure to these
products, thoroughly rinse Caesarstone with clean water as soon as possible; take care to
protect skin and eyes.
Bases: Sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide in 10% or higher concentrations
will etch Caesarstone surface; spills should be cleaned from immediately. In household
concentrations, such as those found in home drain cleaners, sodium and potassium
hydroxide have no effect on Caesarstone.

Solvents: Caesarstone resists a wide range of commercial and industrial solvents.
Household cleaners and industrial strength solutions of methyl ethyl ketone (MEK)
have shown no effect on Caesarstone. Solvents that can be safely used in pure
concentrations only on Caesarstone include:
• Acetone
• Mineral Spirits
• Methylene Chloride
• Lacquer Thinner
• Isopropyl Alcohol
• Trichloroethane
Staining Agents: Caesarstone resists common laboratory staining agents. It is not
permanently stained by povidone-iodine (Betadine), potassium permanganate or tincture
of iodine. Residual stains of Betadine or iodine on light-colored Caesarstone cleans off
with chlorine bleach. Black and dark colors of Caesarstone show no stain from these
agents. Some colors of Caesarstone can be stained by prolonged contact with solutions
of gentian violet, blue ink and some lipsticks.

Product Usage
Manufacturing:
• 97% of water used during manufacture is reclaimed using filtration
and recycling systems.
• Regenerative thermal oxidizers remove particulate matter from the atmosphere,
reducing air pollution and ensuring a safer work environment.
Regional Fabrication: Countertops and other Caesarstone products can be produced by
fabricator located close to building site.
Product Lifespan: Caesarstone is a very durable material.
A limited lifetime warranty is available.
Recommended Cleaning and Maintenance: Caesarstone is a very low-maintenance
material. Unlike natural stone, it does not require periodic resealing for stain resistance,
and its good looks can be maintained without the use of harsh cleaning chemicals. This
improves indoor-air quality and the environmental impact of sealer and cleaning chemicals.
Product Reuse: The high strength of Caesarstone can make it possible to remove
countertops and other installations without excessive breakage. The durability of the
material then makes it possible to reuse Caesarstone in another location.

Fabrication and Installation
General
Caesarstone can be fabricated and installed in much the same manner as natural stone.
A Caesarstone Fabrication and Installation Manual is available upon request. Standard
industry references can also be consulted: The Marble Institute of America’s Dimension
Stone Design Manual provides reliable information for many types of interior stone
construction, and the Tile Council of America’s Handbook for Ceramic Tile Installation has
recommendations for stone tile installation.
Shipping, Storage, and Handling
Alpine

Worland Residence
Home Magazine Settling in The City
San Francisco, CA
Handle Caesarstone with care to avoid breakage or damage. Transport and store in
racks in the near-vertical position to prevent warping. Keep finished face toward finished
face, and protect against rubbing. Store inside, away from direct exposure to sun, and
between 25° and 130°F (−4° and 54°C).
Fabrication
Use of a Certified Caesarstone Fabricator
is required.
Observe the following guidelines:
• Cut and polish Caesarstone with watercooled power tools.
• Lay out materials to minimize joints and
to avoid L-shaped pieces.
• Verify field measurements and inspect
material for defects prior to fabrication.
• Inside corners should have ³⁄8 inch
(10mm) minimum radii to reduce
potential for crack propagation.
• Substrates supporting quartz surfaces
should be plumb, level, and flat to
within ¹⁄¹6 inch in 10 feet (1.6mm in
3048mm). Supports and blocking
should be securely installed.
• Provide fabricator with accurate
templates showing cutouts required
for installation of items installed on or
penetrating through Caesarstone.

Installation over Countertops
Caesarstone must be supported on a strong perimeter frame or on a full deck support of plywood that will keep it flat within ¹⁄16”
(1.6mm) per 18” (3000mm) and support the countertop weight for the useful life of the top.
• Front-to-back support within the cabinet should be provided every 24”. Plan for front-to-back support strips 2.5”-wide
(40mm–100mm) to coincide with cutouts and periodic support. Support must be provided under all countertop joints.
• The use of ¾” material requires the use of a minimum ³⁄8” thick plywood sub top if the edge detail is 1¼” or greater.
Some types of cabinets may require the use of ¾” plywood for European-style frames and supports.
• Leave ¹⁄8” (3mm) minimum clearance between the plywood and built-up edges.
NOTE: Support is required across the top of a dishwasher space and over an under-counter oven.
Supports for Overhang
As a general guideline, support is required for overhangs of Caesarstone. The following guidelines are for standard cabinets 24"in depth.

Installation
A trial installation is recommended to ensure that fabricated components fit accurately
and to make necessary adjustments. Allow gaps for expansion of not less than ¹⁄8 inch
per 5 feet (1.6mm per 1.5m) when Caesarstone is installed between walls or other fixed
conditions. Clean surfaces to receive adhesives and apply adhesives as described below.
Set Caesarstone gently into position. In many conditions of use, Caesarstone should be
adequately secured with 100% clear silicone adhesive only.
Adjacent pieces of Caesarstone should be tight fitting, level, and neat. Cement adjacent
pieces together with high quality polyester or epoxy stone adhesives. Use products that
are recommended by their manufacturers for conditions of use. Follow stone adhesive
manufacturer’s instructions. Stone adhesive should be tinted to match or complement
the Caesarstone color. Fill joints and clamp or brace Caesarstone in position until stone
adhesive sets. Seal joints between backsplashes and countertops and around tub and
shower enclosures with high quality 100% silicone.
Caesarstone recommends the use of adhesives, sealants, and solvents that are compatible
with sustainable construction practices.
Precautions Observe good stone working and safety practices at all times and
comply with applicable building codes and regulations. While rigorous quality control
is maintained in the manufacture of Caesarstone, minor variations in appearance and
aggregate distribution can occur. Adjacent pieces should be from the same batch and
inspected for visual compatibility before fabrication.

Costs Caesarstone is priced below the
cost of many natural stones. Additional
savings result from Caesarstone’s strength
that can simplify fabrication, reduce
breakage, and allow for the use of
thinner materials. Its durability and low
maintenance requirements provide further
lifecycle economies. Current pricing is
