KALINGASTONE QUARTZ’S KITCHEN COUNTER TOPS NOW IN BEIGE

KalingaStone Quartz’s Kitchen Counter Tops Now In Beige

Kitchen Eleganza - Crema Scuro

Mumbai, October 2016: Beige seems to have become the color of the season in kitchen décor with discerning home makers opting for it over other colours. Crema Scuro, the beige quartz made by KalingaStone – a Classic Marble Company (CMC) brand for engineered stones, is in demand for countertop installations in both classic and contemporary kitchens. From its Eleganza series, the classic beige Crema Scuro renders flexibility to the kitchen for accommodating any light and dark shades of décor. The subtle appearing stone sets a perfect backdrop as much for kitchen utilities as it could for any other countertop applications. Custom developed for counter-top installations, KalingaStone Quartz, the engineered tough slab of quartz in beige is a fine fusion of appeal and utility.

Being one of the hardest stones used in utility applications, quartz amongst other stones has the longest lifespan and doesn’t weather under the harshest conditions. The stone is non-porous and hence is highly sanitary and stain-resistant. As kitchen counter-top, despite bearing constant change in temperatures ranging in extreme heat from the cook-tops to the chilled foods or beverages from the refrigerator, the quartz remains unaffected. Also, a kitchen has all the possible ingredients like lime, vinegar, soda, salt, turmeric, among others and which are strong enough chemicals to cause damage to applications. Quartz surface can withstand these without any staining or corroding and does not require any special maintenance either. This makes it an ideal choice for applications in kitchens whether as worktops, backsplashes, or even floors, typically in hotels.

Crema Scuro is available in standard dimensions of 335 cm × 165 cm and thickness of 12 mm, 15mm, 20mm and 30 mm. For kitchen applications, besides its latest introduction CMC’s KalingaStone quartz range includes a bespoke collection of colour, design and pattern. Typically a slab of quartz, irrespective of its application purpose will have a standard polished, glossy surface. Its surface will display a varying degree of silica presence which adds sparkle to the stone and some are as minute as granules while others are very prominent.

CMC APPEALS TO THE FM FOR INCENTIVISING EXPORTS UNDER MEIS

Marble Industry Optimistic Ahead of Union Budget

Mumbai: India’s leading Marble and Granite companies of India – Classic Marble Company (CMC) has expressed optimism for the marble industry in the upcoming Union Budget 2016. The company has said that the Government has made significant strides to promote manufacturing in India under the Make In India campaign and has appealed to the Finance Ministry to strongly consider inclusion of artificial or agglomerated marble slabs or tiles under the ‘Merchandise Exports From India Scheme (MEIS)’.

“Our industry today faces a big threat from countries like China, Taiwan and Korea who also are exporters of artificial or engineered stones that include Marble, Quartz slabs and tiles. These countries are adopting aggressive pricing policies. A number of Indian players in the sector who have made substantial investments in setting up of state of the art plants and machineries are losing out to their Chinese counterparts on account of price competitiveness. We are hopeful that the Finance Ministry extends our industry an MEIS incentive of 5 per cent on export of engineered stones to all the three A, B and C category countries. This will not only spur growth but also increase the nation’s net exports,” says Mr. Amit Shah, Director, CMC.

Silvassa Marble Association of which Classic Marble Company is an active member, has in the recent past made recommendations to the Commerce Secretary for assistance on incentivising exports of agglomerated stones under MEIS scheme.

“In the last two years, India has exported nearly five hundred containers equivalent to INR 70 Crores of manufactured or engineered stones. These are quality products conforming to International Standards made from imported material and processed using the latest technology. Despite making quality products, India’s share is just 0.01 per cent of the global market. If only the Government provisions a 5 per cent incentive to our industry then we are hopeful that India’s share could easily increase by another 0.25 per cent in the global market,” concludes Mr. Vikas Kesarkar, Vice-President – Marketing, CMC.
