In addition to being even more durable than granite, HanStone is also stain-resistant, heat-resistant and easy to maintain. It has also been tested and certified by the National Sanitation Foundation for Food Safety and Food Contact under the NSF 51 Certification, and is backed by a 10-year limited warranty.
All Hanwha products are GREENGUARD certified, passing strict chemical and microbial tests done by this organization to assure the indoor air-quality safe product for the consumer. For additional information on GREENGUARD, please visit http://www.greenguard.org.
