When choosing a cabinet, one must consider aspects such as the cabinet body, door panels, and countertop. The cabinet body should be environmentally friendly, the door panels should be corrosion-resistant, and the countertop should be sturdy. These are the basic knowledge for choosing a cabinet. However, are you aware of the health hazards associated with inferior cabinet countertops?
Health hazards: Poor quality countertops with excessive calcium carbonate content may affect digestive health.
Isn't the countertop of a cabinet made of artificial stone, quartz stone, and metal? What health hazards can it pose? "This is a misconception among many people. According to a relevant person, "Simply put, artificial stone is formed by resin, aluminum powder, pigments, and curing agents; quartz stone is artificially synthesized by adding resin and other trace elements to quartz crystals; metal countertops are mainly made of stainless steel. Currently, the mainstream materials for countertops are quartz stone, artificial stone, and marble, and the usage rate of metals is very low
Why do inferior countertops also have health hazards? Calcium carbonate, commonly known as limestone, is a corrosive and inferior artificial stone or quartz countertop. In order to reduce costs, the content of calcium carbonate will be increased. If food comes into long-term contact with tabletops containing high levels of calcium carbonate, it will inevitably cause pollution and may have a certain impact on the digestive tract after consumption. Poor quality stainless steel countertops also pose a risk of heavy metal pollution, and not all steels are the same. Otherwise, the grade of steel would not be classified as food or medical grade.
