PANMINQUARTZ® passed ASTM G21-15 Fungi Resistance Test. It is a test that reflects whether five main fungi will survive on our quartz surface or not. The test result is No effect, showing that PANMINQUARTZ® surface resists to above five fungi.
About These Five Major Fungi
Aspergillus brasiliensis (formally Aspergillus niger) causes a disease called black mold on certain fruits and vegetables such as grapes, apricots, onions, and peanuts, and is a common contaminant of food. It is ubiquitous in soil and is commonly reported from indoor environments.
Penicillium funiculosum is a plant pathogen infecting pineapples, has been identified as the causal agent of IFC, LP, and FCR, and a pathogen that targets pineapple fruits in the early stages of their development.
Aureobasidium pullulans can be found in different environments (e.g. soil, water, air, and limestone). Chronic human exposure to A. pullulans via humidifiers or air conditioners can lead to hypersensitivity pneumonitis (extrinsic allergic alveolitis) or "humidifier lung". This condition is characterized acutely by dyspnea, cough, fever, chest infiltrates, and acute inflammatory reaction. The condition can also be chronic, and lymphocyte-mediated.
Chaetomium globosum primarily resides on plants, soil, straw, and dung. C. globosum are human allergens and opportunistic agents of ungual mycosis and neurological infections. However such illnesses occur at low rates.
Trichoderma virens is a haploid, filamentous hyphomycete (a subclass of fungi). As strains of T. virens are used to protect many crops from a variety of pathogens, this species is a model system for elucidating the mechanisms of biological control.

Exceptional Durability Quartz panels have set a high standard for durability in modern construction and, therefore, are reliable for projects that require performance and longevity. With an engineered composition of around 90–95% quartz, they assure exceptionally great strength, supported by compressive values ranging from 150–180 MPa. This is well above most natural materials, including granite, […]
Timeless Elegance Granite table tops have long become an ultimate favorite in interior design, which skillfully combines functionality with strikingly impressive looks. The natural beauty of this stone consists of intricate patterns and a wide range of colors, making every table special. For example, the light gray color of a 2-meter dining table with flowing […]

The neutrality of the white and gray shades even each other out into one timeless style, perfect for modern minimalistic design and for a traditional style too. This is exactly the versatility needed in kitchens […]
Kitchen Countertops The white color granite slabs are one of the most versatile and resilient materials that anyone can install in the kitchen as a countertop. Having an approximate density of 2.63 g/cm³ and compressive strength of more than 200 MPa, these are fabricated to bear daily handling in residential and commercial kitchens. Whether for […]
