With 75% of its raw materials coming from post-consumer or post-industrial recycled materials and the other 25% coming from natural stone scraps, the ECO line of eco-friendly countertops is an attractive and green option for your home.   Available in 10 colorways, ECO is an extremely durable line whose quality is equal to that of quartz, marble, or granite surfaces.

ECO is produced by the makers of Silestone, who poured $6 million into research and development.  Knowing that a durable, attractive, green countertop would be a hit in today’s eco-conscious market, Silestone  made a wise investment.  In addition to its green attributes, ECO is available at an affordable price point.  It is priced lower than other stone substitutes, and is comparable to granite.  Widely available at Lowe’s and other specialty retailers, ECO will become increasingly popular among today’s homeowners who are looking for a well-priced environmentally friendly option for their home projects.

In addition to being a beautiful surface, ECO can earn up to five LEED points and works towards the GREENGUARD indoor air quality certification.
