Dekton Bathroom Walls: Durability<\/strong><\/p>\n

Everyone knows the difficulties of a moldy shower. Various molds can cultivate on top of and even under the grout that is essential to tile. If bleach doesn\u2019t work \u2014 it often fails when mold grows beneath the grout \u2014 what\u2019s left is a horrible chemical stench and even more work to do. In other words, it\u2019s an arduous process to clean moldy grout. To do a proper job in a mold-ridden bathroom, you often have to completely remove the grout.<\/p>\n

In a conventional bathroom\u2019s lifetime, it may be necessary to repeat that process many times, magnifying the expense and headache of maintenance.<\/p>\n

With Dekton, there is no need for grout as there are few to no seams since the slabs come in large sizes (3200 x 1400mm) and is ultra-resistant to moisture and stains, and does not require any specific maintenance except wiping with a soft wet cloth. This makes cleaning a breeze!<\/p>\n

Dekton Bathroom Walls: Exquisite Aesthetics<\/strong><\/p>\n

Beyond durability, one of the most impressive aspects of Dekton is its appearance. Its large format size of 3200 x 1400mm ensures fewer joints which results in a high-end look. It is also great for showing off a statement design.<\/p>\n

Dekton exudes the look and feel of luxury. With Dekton beating all engineered stones for durability, it\u2019s easy to forget just how stunning it is in vertical settings like on shower surrounds and wall panels.<\/p>\n
