IceStone For Kitchens

IceStone is a material for kitchen countertops that is both beautiful and eco-effective. Using technology developed by the late Tim McCarthy of the Great Harbor Design Center, IceStone is a terrazzo-like countertop material made of 75% recycled glass and 17–18% white portland cement, and small quantities of proprietary ingredients. The resulting material is nearly as strong and heat resistant as granite and less porous than marble. :: IceStone
