Quartzite is the perfect solution for those who love the elegant, sweeping veins of marble but need the rugged durability of granite. It is a 100% natural, metamorphic rock that starts as sandstone and is fused together under intense heat and pressure, creating one of the hardest and most beautiful stones on earth.
It is the ideal material for a high-use, high-end kitchen, offering stunning, one-of-a-kind looks without the high maintenance of marble.
Why Choose Quartzite?
Like all natural stone, quartzite is porous and must be professionally sealed to protect it from stains. (Note: Some slabs are so dense they barely require it, but a professional sealer is always the safest practice.)
Our expert team at GLF Enterprises has the proper tools and experience to handle this incredibly hard material. We professionally fabricate, cut, and seal your quartzite, ensuring a flawless installation and a surface that will resist stains and look beautiful for decades.

Why Choose Quartzite?
- Looks Like Marble: Quartzite offers the soft, luminous colors (whites, grays, and beiges) and dramatic, flowing veins that many people seek in marble.
- Extreme Durability: This is one of the hardest natural stones available, even harder than granite. It is exceptionally resistant to scratching and chipping.
- Heat Resistant: Quartzite is naturally formed by heat and will not be damaged by hot pots and pans.
- UV Resistant: Unlike man-made quartz, natural quartzite will not fade or yellow in sunlight, making it a perfect choice for outdoor kitchens.
