Cosentino Celebrates 25th Anniversary of Silestone Quartz Surfacing

This year Cosentino is celebrating the 25th anniversary of its Silestone quartz surfacing product. To commemorate this anniversary, the company held an event at its Cantoria headquarters, during which it’s founders, the executive board and a group of employees celebrated 25 years of Silestone’s history and special recognition was awarded to approximately 60 people who have been involved with the brand since its launch. The kickoff celebration is the first in a series of commemorative initiatives that will take place throughout 2015, including an expanded product warranty, new product introductions, designer collaborations and strategic partnerships, and a commemorative logo.

Silestone’s approach to surfacing took years of research and trial and error by the Cosentino family, which started its surfacing roots in the marble industry in Almeria, Spain, before Silestone officially launched in 1989. “Reaching Silestone’s 25th Anniversary is a significant milestone and there is no better way to celebrate the brand’s success than by thanking all of those who have supported us since the very beginning,” said Eduardo Cosentino, CEO of Cosentino North America. “As a family-owned company, Silestone represents our foray into the American market….”

In honor of the anniversary, Silestone expanded its transferable, limited warranty to guarantee coverage of Silestone surfaces and Integrity sinks for up to 25 years from original date of installation, regardless of original owner. The new warranty program will cover surfaces purchased from an authorized installer or dealer and that have been installed in a single-family residence.
