The substantial growth in popularity of quartz worksurfaces has had the Thibaut research & development team concentrating on developing appropriate and reliable solutions to working the quartz material that can wear out diamond tools quicker than granite.

After weeks of research, they now offer a set of tools and adjustments for their automatic and manual machines that allow quartz surfaces to be shaped and polished and draining boards to be milled and polished.

This performance, combined with the tool wear out compensation on the T818 CNC miller-router, secures a particularly high quality result, they say.

The move follows market research by Thibaut that has confirmed the strength of quartz surfaces tops in the kitchen worktop market.
