Unlike granite, <strong>porcelain stoneware is not porous<\/strong>, so it does not absorb liquids and is not prone to permanent staining or bacteria building up.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Not only that, natural stone kitchen tops are also limited in terms of design style. <strong>Porcelain stoneware, however, offers an extensive range of tones<\/strong>, textures, and effects, making it extremely adaptable to various aesthetics.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is also important to remember that <strong>porcelain stoneware is antibacterial and hypoallergenic<\/strong>, which makes it perfect for ensuring food safety and exceptional hygiene. Compared to stainless steel, which is commonplace in commercial kitchens, porcelain stoneware offers a warmer, more welcoming alternative, without compromising on strength and durability.
