Silestone Yukon

Silestone Yukon

Silestone Yukon reflects the dappled light and subtle, swirling rhythm of a gently flowing river. Its neutral colouring has the understated look of an elegant off-white, making it a versatile match for a broad spectrum of kitchen cabinets, appliances and wall coverings. It is the perfect centrepiece for predominantly white and light kitchens, as well as for making a strong design contrast with dark units and panels.

Yukon quartz comes in three different Silestone finishes – polished, suede and volcano. The polished option carries a lovely shine on the ultra-smooth surface, while suede adds a subtle softness in look and touch. Volcano is a more rugged, hammered finished with a distinctly modern feel, which works superbly in Yukon.

Whichever finish you choose, the full range of Silestone edges give you options on the neatest bevel edges, softer, rounded bullnoses, and more sculpted looks. Silestone edges are flawlessly formed, and complete the exceptionally smart appearance of your worktop.

Among the attractions of Silestone quartz is the ease with which it can keep its good looks and be hygienically clean. Because it is so hard and virtually non-porous, it is highly resistant to stains and scratches, and it will not provide germs with a safe hiding place. The maintenance regime is simplicity itself:

• Wipe down to remove dust, crumbs and any other food particles
• Use a wet e-cloth or microfibre cloth to wipe away any spilled liquids, the sooner the better
• Dry your worktop with clean cloth
• For dried liquids or marks, wipe off with a kitchen cleaner (we recommend Oxy-Klenza™)

The durability of Silestone quartz is excellent, and clients have the reassurance of a 25-year manufacturer’s warranty. It is produced by Cosentino, a leading name in granite and quartz with a track record of supplying the highest quality stones for over 30 years. You will find Silestone not just in the world’s most stylish kitchens but also in bathrooms and living areas. The quartz is also favoured by architects for external cladding and paved areas, which is further testament to how extremely hard-wearing it is.

One of the secrets of Silestone’s toughness is the modern technology behind it. By combining quartz, minerals and recycled materials under extreme heat and pressure, the slabs become as durable as stones and granite formed over millennia in the natural world. The process also makes use of renewable energy and water which has been recycled. Silestone not only looks wonderful and performs brilliantly, it also has genuine environmental credentials.
