Hybriq+® IS THE RESULT OF YEARS OF INNOVATION AND INVESTMENT
In 2017, Cosentino anticipated the future by initiating a comprehensive research process to create the first low-silica mineral surfaces on the market. In 2020, thanks to Hybriq+® technology, we launched the first two low-silica collections: Loft and Sunlit Days. By 2023, we manufacture 85% of surfaces with less than 40% crystalline silica and 15% with less than 10%.
