Eco Countertop Care and Maintenance
Eco by Cosentino surfaces are low in porosity and do not need sealing making cleaning easy. To maintain Eco surfaces’ beauty and shine, simply wipe with soap and water on a regular basis.
Difficult Spills
Clean all spills immediately. To remove difficult spills, soak the area for 10 minutes with a gentle pH-balanced house cleaner or regular soap and water. Then rinse and clean away with a soft cloth. Acceptable cleaners include Windex®, Lysol® or other similar cleaners. For stains that harden as dry, such as food and gum, remove them by gently scraping off the surface (using a blade or putty remover), and then clean using warm water and soap and a soft cloth. Do not use any chemical sealant products.
Extreme Heat
ECO by Cosentino surfaces perform okay against heat and can withstand moderately high temperatures for brief periods of time without being damaged. As with any stone surfaces, however, certain exposure to heat may cause cracks due to thermal shock. Always use a trivet or a cutting board to place hot items on ECO by Cosentino surfaces. Do not use crock pots, electric skillets or other hot items directly on ECO by Cosentino surfaces.
Harsh Chemicals
the following chemicals will harm ECO by Cosentino surfaces: Drano®, Liquid Plummer®, oven cleaners, and floor strippers. DO NOT use these or any other harsh chemicals on your ECO by Cosentino surface.
Sunlight Exposure
Avoid continuous long-term exposure to direct sunlight (UV Rays) which may result in slight discolouration of ECO by Cosentino surfaces.
General Precautions
Avoid cutting directly on ECO by Cosentino surfaces. To prolong the life of your knives, always use a cutting board. ECO by Cosentino surfaces are durable, but avoid using knives directly on the surface. ECO by Cosentino surfaces may scratch and will also dull the sharpness of most knives.
