Both beautiful, sustainable and good for the environment, Icestone is formed from 100% recycled glass in a cement matrix, diverting hundreds of tons of glass from landfills each year. Even their facility is operated out of a renovated, day-lit factory in the Brooklyn Navy Yard, creating jobs for US workers. Aside from being eco-friendly, this cutting-edge countertop is solid and able to withstand scratches and heat. Easily maintained using low pH cleaners and water-based sealers, Icestone can be used both indoors and out without fading. It is the first and only surface world-wide to receive the “McDonough Braungart’s Cradle to Cradle certification.” With its versatile color palette and high polish, honed or sandblasted finish options, it can be customized to achieve your desired look or feel. “Icestone is a beautiful material. It is rare to find a product that combines social responsibility and high design. “ ~ Maya Lin, Artist & Architect
