Silicosis: a serious issue

Prolonged inhalation of unsafe levels of silica dust can result in silicosis, a chronic lung disease that may cause breathing difficulties, Progressive Massive Fibrosis (PMF), or even lung cancer.


To address these safety concerns, it is essential to switch the paradigm through a next-generation technology for the production of Engineered Stone.

Our ready-to-use solution

Kreos® Plus represents the technical solution for manufacturing low-silica (less than 40% by weight), double-layered Engineered Stone slabs.


It consists of:

  • A thin upper layer that incorporates cristobalite, quartz, or Bioquartz® aggregates to achieve the required aesthetic
    and technical features; and
  • A thicker lower layer, manufactured using a combination of calcareous and/or amorphous aggregates.


If we were to use Bioquartz® aggregates in the thin upper layer, the result would be a “100% silica-free” product!

Safety and trendiness

Kreos® Plus is fully integrable with another state-of-the-art system: Chromia®.

Chromia® redefines innovation by offering boundless high-definition designs while preserving all quartz distinctive attributes and characteristics over time.

Furthermore, the combination between Kreos® Plus and Chromia® enables the production of full-body digital printed designs!
