EPD: Quartz surfacing material, 0.75-1.13 in, 150 lbs/ft3, Zodiaq (DuPont)

Our scientists created Zodiaq quartz for the demanding ones—the architects, designers, and homeowners who are as exacting about aesthetics as they are about performance. The sparkling crystal within Zodiaq balances stunning light-play with mesmerizing depth. Long-lasting and GREENGUARD and GREENGUARD Gold Certified as a low-emitting material, Zodiaq surfaces are a highperformance material, delivering strength, and heat and scratch resistance. The Zodiaq Terra Collection is the same sophisticated quartz surface as ever, but its composition includes a percentage of pre-consumer and post-consumer recycled content (Post-consumer content percentages vary by color). When properly cleaned, Zodiaq quartz does not promote the growth of mold and mildew. Zodiaq may help contribute to U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) LEED points. Most colors of Zodiaq are NSF/ANSI Standard 51 Certified for the strictest level – Food Zone.
