And CaesarStone, as it turns out, is pretty green. (Their green commitments are outlined extensively here.) They're GreenGuard-certified and a member of the US Green Building Council.
CaesarStone is made of 93% natural quartz — and it's super stain, scratch, and heat-resistant. We were impressed with the smooth, clean look of the counters; similar to granite, but with less grain.
