Sintered Stone Countertops
Slab Supply & Prefabrication
Sintered stone countertops are widely specified for kitchens, bathrooms, and commercial interiors due to their durability, low maintenance, and consistent surface quality. Produced under high temperature and pressure, the material offers low water absorption, resistance to heat and stains, and stability across different environments.
TAQ supports projects through two supply approaches:
Sintered Stone Slab Supply
Clients handle local fabrication
Prefabricated Sintered Stone Countertops
Delivered ready for installation or cut-to-size sections
Each option serves different project conditions, depending on local capabilities, cost structure, and required level of control.
Sintered Stone Slab Supply
TAQ supplies large-format sintered stone slabs for clients who prefer to carry out fabrication locally. This approach is suitable when reliable fabrication facilities are available or when full customization is required on-site.
Material Thickness Selection
• 6 mm: not suitable for countertops
• 9–10 mm: requires reinforcement or build-up
• 12 mm & 20 mm: standard for countertop applications
When to Choose Slab Supply
• Local fabrication expertise is available
• Project requires high flexibility on-site
• Utilizes existing local fabrication capabilities when available
• Complex or last-minute design adjustments expected
Prefabricated Sintered Stone Countertops
TAQ supplies prefabricated countertops or cut-to-size sections based on project drawings, reducing on-site work and ensuring consistent quality. Processing is completed in controlled factory conditions before shipment. This approach minimizes fabrication risks and improves installation efficiency. This approach minimizes fabrication risks and improves installation efficiency.
Advantages of Prefabrication
Advanced Fabrication Capabilities
Prefabrication at factory level allows access to specialized processing equipment and controlled production conditions, which are typically not available or consistent in all local markets.
• CNC machining for precise and repeatable cutting, edge profiling, and shaping
• Waterjet cutting for complex geometries, internal cut-outs, and fine detailing without inducing thermal stress
• Bridge saws and calibration equipment for accurate straight cuts and dimensional consistency
• Edge polishing lines to achieve uniform finishing across all pieces
Quality Control
• Fabrication carried out with specialized equipment
• Consistent finishing across all pieces
• Reduced dependency on local workmanship
Reduced On-Site Risk
• No cutting or major processing required at site
• Lower risk of chipping, cracking, or measurement errors
• Faster installation timeline
Material Optimization
• Better slab usage and layout planning
• Reduced waste compared to on-site fabrication
TAQ Prefabrication Capabilities
Cut-to-Size Production
• Based on detailed project drawings
• Predefined dimensions for kitchens, islands, and vanitie
Edge Finishing Options
• Straight polished edge
• Eased edge
• Beveled edge
• Mitered edges for thicker visual profiles
Cut-Out Processing
• Sink openings
• Hob openings
• Faucet hole
Thickness Solutions
• 12 mm & 20 mm solid slabs
• Laminated build-up (visual thickness 20–40 mm)
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Sintered stone is often referred to as gres porcelain or compact surfaces. These terms all describe the same high-performance material created through advanced sintering technology.
12 mm is the standard thickness for most sintered stone countertops. 20 mm solid slabs are also used where higher strength, longer spans, or a thicker appearance is required.
Yes, a 30 mm (3 cm) thickness can be achieved through mitered edge fabrication and drop-down build-up. The visible thickness is created by joining pieces at the edges, while the main surface typically remains 12 mm or 20 mm thick. This approach provides a thicker, more substantial appearance without the weight and material cost of a full solid slab. This method is widely used to achieve 20–40 mm edge profiles while maintaining structural efficiency.
Yes, they can be produced based on project drawings, including dimensions, cut-outs, and edge details.
Where dimensions allow, countertops can be supplied as single-piece units ready for direct installation. Larger layouts are supplied in sections and assembled on-site.
How Prefabricated Countertops Are Delivered
Prefabricated sintered stone countertops are supplied as modular sections, not as a single assembled unit. Depending on the layout, this typically includes:
• Straight countertop sections cut to size and fabricated ready to fix on cabinetry
• Corner pieces for L-shaped layouts (joined on-site)
• Island tops supplied in one or more sections
• Vertical panels for waterfall edges or cladding
Final installation includes:
• joining seams between sections using proper adhesives
• fixing to cabinetry
• alignment and finishing on-site
