Stone Thickness

 

Stone countertops come in a variety of thicknesses, to suit specific uses and budgets.

3CM is the standard and most widely available thickness for all stone types, offering maximum durability and a traditional look.

2CM, 1.5CM, and 1.2CM quartz has a sleek, modern look.

Natural stones like granite, marble, and quartzite are not commonly found in the thinner sizes—most are only offered in 3CM, with only a few exceptions available in 2CM.
