Tips about Zero-Silica

What Zero-Silica Means — And Why It Matters

Zero-silica does not simply mean a product contains no silicon dioxide (SiO₂). In stone surfaces, “zero-silica” refers to materials made without crystalline silica, the form of silica linked to serious health risks during fabrication. Instead, zero-silica products — such as glass-based stone — are made from glass sand, which is melted, purified, and processed into a solid slab.

Why It’s Different from Traditional Quartz

  • Traditional quartz stone is made from natural quartz sand — a mined mineral that contains crystalline silica along with trace elements. Even after chemical pickling, quartz sand can reach 99.5% purity but still contains harmful crystalline silica particles.

  • When workers cut, grind, or polish quartz, these particles can become airborne. Inhalation may lead to silicosis, lung disease, and other occupational health issues.

  • By contrast, glass stone is produced by melting glass at high temperatures, removing impurities and toxic trace elements. The result is a non-toxic, crystalline-silica-free surface.

Benefits of Zero-Silica Glass Stone

  • Safer for Fabrication – Eliminates the health risks associated with crystalline silica dust.

  • Environmentally Responsible – Waste residue treatment is cleaner and does not pollute soil.

  • Hygienic & Certified Safe – Glass stone is non-toxic, food-safe, colourless, odourless, and CE/NSF compliant.

  • Durable & Beautiful – High lustre, scratch and stain resistance, and excellent pollutant-resistance.

  • Regulation-Ready – Meets or exceeds emerging safety laws in regions such as California, Australia, and Europe.

Why It Matters for the Industry

The adoption of zero-silica materials represents a major shift in surface manufacturing — protecting workers, aligning with stricter health standards, and offering customers a safer, high-performance product. For builders and distributors, it’s both a compliance solution and a competitive advantage.

Zero-silica glass stone is not just the future — it’s the safer, smarter choice for today.
