Technical Specifications
Our breathtaking quartz surfaces are masterfully crafted to both enhance the array of interior design styles and withstand the wear and tear of daily life.
The Technology behind the art
Crafted like a piece of art, intricate imaginations come alive in every Quantum surface, and it's delivered with unwavering consistency across batches.
Compact
Patented Vacuum-Vibro compaction process delivers truly sturdy, non-porous surfaces & high intensity programmable laminar mixers enable maximum quartz to binder ratio. This ensures extremely compact, high-performance slabs.
Consistent
The highest degree of design and feature consistency is assured with fully automated weighing and charging systems, automated design technologies & programmable components. Besides, curing consistency across the slab is achieved by using LPG kiln with automated temperature control systems.
Creative
Features like programmable dry pigment distributor for short veins, advanced robotic arms, special mixers, etc., enable limitless design and color options. While the slabs are intricately designed, Quantum can be produced in high volumes, at high speeds.
Breton is the pioneer and global leader in quartz stone technology. Its patented vibro-press technology, highly controlled heating system, sophisticated robotic arms and programmable distribution systems enable designers and technologists to create highly aesthetic, yet sturdy surfaces.
