In today’s kitchen design, homeowners want more than just good looks—they want durability, low maintenance, and timeless appeal. That’s why Quartz kitchen countertops have become one of the most sought-after upgrades in Chicago, and at Old World Granite Inc., we’re proud to offer custom quartz solutions that blend function with luxury.

What Is Quartz and Why Is It So Popular?

Quartz countertops are engineered using natural quartz crystals combined with resins and pigments. The result is a surface that’s not only incredibly strong and non-porous but also available in a stunning variety of colors and finishes.

Whether you're dreaming of a clean white kitchen, bold veining, or something that mimics natural stone, quartz offers endless design flexibility to match any aesthetic.

Benefits of Quartz Countertops for the Kitchen

Your kitchen is the heart of the home—where family meals are made, guests gather, and everyday life happens. Here’s why quartz is ideal for that environment:

1. Non-Porous & Hygienic

Unlike granite or marble, quartz does not require sealing. It resists stains, bacteria, and moisture, making it a healthier and cleaner surface for food preparation.

2. Low Maintenance

Busy households love quartz because it’s virtually maintenance-free. A simple wipe with soap and water keeps it looking brand new—no special cleaners or polishes needed.

3. Consistent Beauty

Because quartz is engineered, it offers more consistent patterns and colors than natural stone. This means what you see in the showroom is exactly what you’ll get in your kitchen.

4. Durability That Lasts

Quartz is one of the hardest minerals on Earth. These countertops are resistant to chips, scratches, and everyday wear, making them ideal for high-traffic kitchens.

Ideal for Any Kitchen Style

From modern minimalism to classic charm, quartz adapts effortlessly. Popular styles include:

• Pure white or matte black countertops for modern kitchens

• Marble-look quartz for timeless elegance

• Earthy tones for cozy, rustic vibes

• High-gloss options for a sleek, contemporary edge
