OSHA Control Methods for Engineered Stone Fabrication
December 12, 2023What Are Engineered Stone (Quartz) Countertops?
December 15, 2023On December 13, 2023, the government of Australia took the very important step of banning all types of engineered stone, also know as quartz, artificial, or composite. The ban is effective July 1, 2023, and bans the use, supply, importation, and manufacture of all engineered stone containing silica, regardless of the level of silica content, including so-called “low silica” products. This is a huge step to ensure the safety of Australian stone fabricators and reflects the medical and scientific knowledge that it is not possible to fabricate engineered stone safely.
