Dekton
A dense, large-format mineral surface made using high-pressure compaction and thermal processing. Dekton is used for worktops, furniture, floors, walls and ventilated façades where low water absorption, UV stability and resistance to stains, abrasion and heat are required.

Comparison Status
This result should be displayed for information only and not ranked against another product.
- • The lifecycle modules covered by the figure could not be determined.
Evidence Gaps
- •No product-specific circularity or material-health claims are recorded.
Design & Specification Notes
Qualitative notes for early design discussion. Not product-specific EPD evidence, and not a basis for numerical comparison.
A dense, large-format mineral surface made using high-pressure compaction and thermal processing.
Typical Uses
- •Hardware & fittings
- •Bathroom/kitchen fixtures
- •Accessories
Specification Actions
- •Confirm the current EPD covers the selected product, finish and manufacturing route.
- •Calculate transport distances for primary materials.
- •Document material reuse or reclaimed content percentages.
Indicative Health & Indoor Air
- •respirable crystalline-silica dust during dry cutting, grinding or fabrication
Installed slabs are solid and inert in normal use. Fabrication must follow Cosentino guidance and use wet methods, extraction and suitable respiratory protection; do not dry-cut.
