Documentation release timeline
How Silestone refreshes technical packs when collections, finishes, or compliance pathways change.
-
Q1
Collection data refresh
New color SKUs receive Mohs hardness, water absorption, and finish matrices before dealer launch kits ship.
-
Q2
CAD & install updates
Edge libraries and installation guides incorporate fabricator feedback on cutout density and thick-edge builds.
-
Q3
Compliance packet review
NSF, GREENGUARD Gold, and ISO documentation pathways are re-verified for active commercial collections.
-
Q4
Annual engineering digest
Thermal, UV stability, and jumbo handling notes consolidate into a year-end digest for specification libraries.
Technical limits to read before you specify
- Heat & thermal shock: Hot pots can leave thermal marks; use trivets. Published guidance covers typical kitchen exposure, not open-flame contact.
- Outdoor UV stability: Only collections labeled for exterior use should face prolonged UV; standard indoor quartz may fade or chalk outdoors.
- Overhang support: Flexural strength class does not remove the need for brackets or substrate support beyond published overhang tables.
- Metal marking: Soft metals can leave grey marks on polished finishes; these are usually removable and are not structural defects.
