good question! let's keep thing simple and makes learning easy! first of all, a small introduction to everyone that "BIIG Renovation" is our company renovation arm.

quartz agglomerate is an established product that has been around for more than 30 years. it comes in a wide range of colour selection, ranging from solid colour for the minimalist to exciting vein filled colour that compliments any form of kitchens. quartz is a tough mineral that has a mohs' scale of 7 compared to diamond that has a scale of a perfect 10 and leaves marble in the scale of 2. not only quartz is tough against scratches, it is also tough against stain. it is a homogeneous, full body coloured product, renders quartz agglomerate as designers preferred choice when it comes to edge termination.

be it china made or branded good, the quartz contents within these slabs is between 90% and 92%. the popular questions that we have been getting all the while is as following, "what is the main difference between the branded good and these China made product?". Of course there is a BIIG difference! I will let you know if you are really interested in our product. Do contact me, felix at 016 417 9594

As for sintered stone, it is based on new tech and completely resin free. this has significantly enhanced engineered stone resistance against heat of up to 300 degree celsius. with the absence of resin, sintered stone will not experience discoloration against uv ray thus allowing engineered stone to be used internally and externally for the very first time. unlike quartz agglomerate that is made only using a single mineral, sintered stone utilised more than 20 minerals as to increase the material toughness, enables it to withstands greater compressive force during manufacturing and leaving sintered stone with a completely flat surface with only a +/- 2mm deflection for a span of 10.5 feet slab. when it comes to toughness, it is also measured at a mohs' scale of 7. you may say sintered stone is a performance stone! it has extremely high resistance against both scratches and stains! when i mentioned extremely high, i really meant it as the permeability against liquid is only at 0.2%. you may even use a permanent marker to draw on it and it completely clean it with mere soap and water! only one word i would use to describe sintered stone, amazing!

as for price wise, both branded quartz and sintered stone price starts from MYR 230/sqft and above. the premium colour slipped a little deeper into your pocket with prices start from MYR 400/sqft and above. both products shared the same objectives, that is to bring excitement to a new height while keeping the maintenance to the minimum.
