Taking Care of your quartz Compac Surface

Quartz COMPAC surfaces blend modern sophistication and timeless luxury with unbeatable strength and durability. The ever-lasting finish requires only simple and routine care to maintain its good looks. To clean Quartz COMPAC, we recommend using warm water and a mild detergent or quality spray and wipe type cleaner in order to enjoy enduring beauty and unmatched performance for years to come.

Minimal Maintenance

Virtually maintenance-free, Quartz COMPAC’s hard, non-porous surfaces require no sealing to renew the luster and are simple to clean. In most cases, soap and water or a mild detergent is enough to keep your Quartz COMPAC countertop looking like new. If necessary, use a non-abrasive soft soap along with a non-scratch or delicate scrub pad. Afterwards, thoroughly rinse with clean water to remove residue.

Stubborn Stains or Dried Spills

If needed, apply a non-abrasive household cleaners (a non-abrasive cleaner will not dull the surface shine) and rinse to remove residue. To remove adhered material such as food, gum, nail polish or even dried paint, first scrape away excess material with a plastic putty knife and then use a damp cloth to remove any marks or residual dirt. For extra-stubborn stains, a no-scratch Scotch-Brite® pad is recommended along with the non-abrasive cleaner recommended by your local Quartz COMPAC distributor.

Heat Tolerance

COMPAC The Surfaces Company is more heat resistant than other stone surfaces including most granite, marble and limestone; and is not affected by temperatures lower than 150°C (300°F). However, like all stone material, Quartz COMPAC can be damaged by sudden and rapid temperature changes. Therefore, we suggest that hot pots and pans never be directly placed on the surface. We also recommend a hot pad or trivet be placed on the surface under cooking units such as electric frying pans, crock pots, or roaster ovens.

Scratch Resistant

COMPAC The Surfaces Company is a highly scratch resistant surface; however avoid abuse of the surface by refraining from using sharp objects such as sharp knives or screw drivers directly onto the surface.

Cleaning Agents to Avoid

It’s important to be aware that like any other surface, COMPAC can be permanently damaged if exposed to strong chemicals and solvents that can damage its physical properties. Never clean your Quartz COMPAC surface with products that contain Trichlorethane or Methylene chloride, such as paint removers or strippers. Avoid the use of highly aggressive cleaning agents such as oven/grill cleaners and dishwasher polishing agents that have high alkaline/pH levels (pH 8.5 or higher). Products containing oils or powders may leave a residue and should be rinsed off thoroughly. Should your surface accidentally be exposed to any of these damaging products, rinse immediately with clean water to neutralize the effect.

Arik Levy for Compac Surfaces

Arik Levy is a Paris-based artist and designer who is best known for his sculptures and limited edition designs. Arik has created installations using Compac's unique collections such as Ice of Genesis and Mineral Gravity. Compac collaborates with the designer in order to innovate design potential and transcend the design industry with exceptional products.
Inspired by glaciers and the idea of walking on ice, the Ice of Genesis collection is everything about fragility and stability. The designs created a new dimension using larger veins than ever seen before.
The Mineral Gravity installation is defined by the artistic centerpiece of a quartz block that appears to be floating while creating a minimalist setting. Made of engineered quartz from the Ice of Genesis collection, the Mineral Gravity block is made to force the audience to question the everyday angles and orientations of our living spaces.
