The very best for wellness centers and spas combined in a single natural stone
What properties should a material have to be suited for use in a wellness center or spa? It must be waterproof, withstand salt and chlorine, it must be possible to keep hygienically clean, it should be as easy to care for as possible and, ideally, it should also have a natural appearance. Silberquarzit combines all of these attributes in a single natural stone. What’s more, it also offers a wide range of design options.
Silberquarzit’s high density makes this genuine stone virtually waterproof: According to DIN 52103, the water absorption of Silberquarzit is only 0.22 percent by weight. This means that Silberquarzit has the lowest water absorption rate of any natural stone, so it doesn’t stain and water can simply be wiped off the surface.
Whether athlete’s foot, bacteria or germs – these microbes have no way of spreading Silberquarzit. A test conducted by the Landesgewerbeanstalt (LGA) Bayern (Bavarian quality control authority for structural analysis) showed this: Silberquarzit is a desert for microbes. They cannot form on its surface. The test compared different rock types and subjected them to high temperatures and humidity for 14 days. Only Silberquarzit and the negative control with glass had no discernible bacteria or fungal growth.
Are you building a sauna? Planning a salt water pool? Are chlorine or other hygiene chemicals essential for your pool? You can rely on Silberquarzit in any area. Its hardness makes it especially resistant to weather, robust, easy to clean and durable. A variety of tests confirm that it is both resistant to salt (DIN 52111 - A) and resistant to acid (DIN 52206). This genuine stone is known for its non-slip properties, even in wet and barefoot areas.This makes it an appealing material for use in any area.
