SilestoneŽ is the only countertop with built-in MicrobanŽ antimicrobial product protection to safely
fight the growth of odor-causing bacteria 24/7 for
the life of the product. As a result, Silestone is
easier to clean and stays cleaner in between
cleanings.
Between normal cleanings, bacteria can exist on ANY
countertop surface and under the right conditions,
such as those commonly found in the kitchen, can
double in number every 20 minutes. Microban provides
continuous antimicrobial cleaning action that will
keep the SilestoneŽ countertop cleaner and give your
customers added peace of mind. This is EXTRA
protection and added value.
