Dekton by Cosentino: Durable and Protective In Any Outdoor Environment

Outdoor areas — gardens, pools, terraces and even façades — are integral parts of the home that often lack the care and attention they need. They require special surfaces that can stand the test of time with demanding weather conditions, seasonal changes and heavy foot traffic.

Cosentino’s Dekton provides a low maintenance solution for exterior architecture and design. Suitable for floors, walls, stairs, pathways and surrounds, the ultra-compact surface is highly scratch-, fade-, and stain-resistant. Outdoor areas such as kitchens, pools, barbecues, fireplace surrounds, walls, and flooring become warrantied for 25 years with Dekton. It has a high hydrolysis resistance, with almost zero porosity, meaning it will not swell from constant water exposure, while its heat-resistant properties means it’s durable in extreme heat scenarios making it popular for beautiful outdoor kitchen islands and benchtops. And, it’s resistant to UV rays too.

With its manufacturing technology process made up of 100% renewable electric energy and 99% recycled water, Dekton is carbon neutral from cradle to grave, making it an exceptionally environmentally friendly choice for your outdoor decor. It can be used for exterior façades for buildings in any scale, as the surface is available in large format sizing with multiple installation options. In the Pacific by Grosvenor apartment building in Canada, where temperatures can be extreme, Dekton’s Aura 15 in 12mm thickness was specified for the stunning ventilated façade. More than 1000m² of the surface was supplied to create a high-end exterior aesthetic.

Best of all, Dekton does all of this while providing a stylish exterior aesthetic. Available in more than 40 different colours and patterns, including two new ranges launched in September 2022, with matte and high gloss effects. Dekton offers an option for any style, from beautifully modern and contemporary to classically traditional. There are five different thicknesses, making it extremely versatile for all forms of applications and also a variety of Dekton finishes that resemble natural exterior surfaces, such as natural stone, concrete, steel, and wood for an integrated look with any landscaping.
