In today’s eco-conscious environment, choosing a brand of stone that reflects environmentally-friendly values is key. Here at Dauter Stone we carry several brands that reflect this mindset including Cosentino, Caesarstone and Laminam. Each brand shares unique product offerings while keeping close to their sustainable roots.
Consentino features three product lines – Sensa, Dekton and Silestone and each line encompasses a carbon-neutral approach throughout the entire creation process. 100% certified renewable electric energy is utilized at Consentino’s Spain facility making it one of the largest self-consumption photovoltaic plants in Europe. Water is also key to the stone manufacturing process at Cosentino and with every drop utilized, Cosentino follows a strict zero discharge policy with water recovered and reused throughout each step of production. At the end of the production process, all waste is treated, managed and disposed of in a CoMA treatment and recovery plant, an integral part to the eco-conscious development process.
Caesarstone nurtures symbiotic sustainability with a focus on a collective responsibility towards the environment. Environmental Social Governance is practiced by Caeserstone leading with the following sustainability-led initiatives:
- The development of sustainable products with lifetime warranties for indoor products and 10-year warranties for outdoor
- A 70% reduction of packaging waste
- Renewable energy is utilized during the entire process
- A reduction of water use per slab by 24% over the last five years
Laminam’s approach towards sustainable best practices is condensed into three guiding principles: Resilience, innovation, and responsiveness. Over the years, Laminam has obtained PD Certification on all products, ISO 14001 Certification for the Borgotaro and Fiorano plants, ISO 20400 Certification for Sustainable Purchasing and UNI EN 14064-1:2008 Certification for the company’s overall carbon footprint. Each product produced by Laminam follows strict standards with an eco-conscious approach. In 2021, Laminam launched a new treatment, Ambience, which seamlessly integrates with the stone as a natural element, working to increase surface hygiene and cleaning standards by creating a chemical reaction that can decrease bacterial load and pollutants in an environmentally sound approach.
