Silestone is the world’s leading Quartz surface manufactured by Cosentino.

Innovation is key to design at Cosentino, and  a great example of this is the new “Silestone” Integrity – a kitchen sink that is currently available in three different sizes.

A single sink, in one piece, (measuring 41 x 51 x 15,5 cm) the “Silestone” Integrity has a curved outline and fluid organic design.

Also available in one piece, it is available in two sizes: 37 x 34 x 15.5, which is ideal for a double sink and the 37 x 41 x 15.5 which ideal for a single sink. Unlike the “Integrity” the “Due” is characterised by its straight lines. It is perfect for those who see straight lines as the mark of beauty.
