What Is Calacatta Poseidon

Calacatta Poseidon Quartz countertops and slabs are a man made material manufactured from crushed stone and resin. Engineered Calacatta Poseidon quartz blends pulverized quartz or other natural stone aggregates like granite and marble with a polymer resin mix. The percentage varies by manufacturer but is usually around 90 percent ground quartz (a natural hard mineral) with eight to 10 percent resins, polymers, and pigments.
