IceStone® surfaces are the ideal choice if you are searching for an eco-friendly, green countertop. IceStone surfaces can also be used for backsplashes, bathroom vanities, table tops, bar tops, interior walls, and commercial flooring applications. Beautiful shower and bathtub surrounds and kitchen sinks can be made with IceStone as well. IceStone surfaces can be mounted vertically or horizontally.
IceStone durable surfaces do not contain any petrochemicals and therefore will not fade from direct sun exposure. IceStone products are a healthy and safe choice for your surface needs, as they are chemically benign and 99.5% inorganic. Third party testing results are available upon request.
Use of Icestone Durable Surces may contribute materially to the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design® (“LEED®”) green building certification process. Accordingly, use of Icestone may provide measurable performance in the following LEED credit categories:
Materials and Resources (MR)
MR 4: Recycled Content
IceStone durable surfaces contain recycled content that ranges from 70% on average to 75% of the product by weight. Of the recycled content, generally 80-100% is pre-consumer waste, with the balance being post-consumer waste.
MR 5: Regional Materials
IceStone durable surfaces are manufactured in Brooklyn, NY. If your project is within 500 miles of us, IceStone qualifies as a regional material.
Indoor Environmental Quality (EQ)
EQ 4: Low-Emitting Materials
IceStone durable surfaces contain no volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and thus emit no VOCs. We recommend that IceStone be used in conjunction with certain low-VOC or no-VOC sealants.
Innovation in Design (ID)
Innovation in Design: Cradle to Cradle Certification
IceStone is the first and only durable surface to have achieved Cradle to Cradle certification. McDonough Braungart Design Chemistry (MBDC) – an independent third-party firm – has evaluated IceStone durable surfaces for its human health, environmental health, lifecycle attributes, social responsibility, renewable energy and water stewardship characteristics against stringent criteria and has certified it as a Gold level ecologically intelligent product.
