Their water absorption is greater - about 0.5%. Therefore, they are covered with water repellent icing. Quartz and feldspar are added to porcelain. Due to this, its water absorption is less, and the price and strength are higher.
2. Bowls from an artificial stone are rather simple in production. A mixture of natural stone, sand (quartz), polyester resin and hardener is poured into the molds. After hardening, the product is ready. Such shower trays are eco-friendly, durable, resistant to shocks. The most popular imitation of marble; Granite, basalt, onyx and other products are also produced.
