Snow Black Quartz
Description
Snow Black Quartz is an engineered quartz surface with a black base with dense white crystal fragments, like a breccia.
A striking mosaic look for bathroom walls and floors.
Snow Black Quartz is stocked as 1800mm x 2700mm slabs, 18mm thick, with a polished finish.
Origin & Technical Profile

| Material | Engineered stone: crushed quartz bound with polymer resin and pigment |
|---|---|
| Country of origin | China |
| Finish | Polished / Re-Polishable |
| Thickness | 18mm |
| Slab size | 1800mm x 2700mm |
| Composition | Roughly 90β93% quartz aggregate, the rest resin and pigment |
| Density | About 2.3 β 2.4 g/cmΒ³ |
| Water absorption | Near zero (typically β€ 0.05%) β no sealing needed |
| Hardness | About 7 Mohs (quartz aggregate) |
| Heat | Resin can scorch above ~150 Β°C β always use a trivet |
| Outdoor use | Not recommended β strong UV can yellow the resin |
| Fabrication | Cut wet only: dry-cutting quartz releases crystalline silica dust |
Practical note: Daily cleaning with mild soap is enough; avoid oven cleaner, paint stripper and other strong solvents that attack the resin.
Technical figures are typical values for this type of material; colour can shift slightly between production batches, so match slabs from the same batch.
Choosing Snow Black Quartz
The look: Snow Black Quartz has a black base with dense white crystal fragments, like a breccia. A striking mosaic look for bathroom walls and floors.
Living with the pattern: The chips in Snow Black Quartz make a busy, playful surface that hides spills and crumbs well. Joints are easy to blend, so it suits long counters and shop fronts.
Where it works best: Kitchen islands, bar and coffee counters, statement vanities and feature walls.
What goes with Snow Black Quartz:
- White or cream cabinets for strong contrast
- Warm wood cabinets for a richer, darker kitchen
- Gold or brass fittings, which stand out well against black
- Good under-cabinet lighting, since dark tops make a counter feel darker

Compare with black granite: Black granite costs less and takes hot pans better; quartz gives patterns and sparkle that natural black granite does not have. See black granite colours and rates.
