Description
Trend Q is a series of terrazzo-like engineered stone tiles and slabs that include numerous colors with recycled glass content. The material is composed of approximately 93% "grit" or chips and 7% pigmented polyester resin. The grit, which is comprised of either quartz, granite, glass, or mosaic, is crushed into nine different granule sizes. These granules are mixed with the pigmented polyester resin and spread on a large sheet mold where the slab takes its shape. After finishing the surface to a high polish, the slab is fitted with a mesh backing and is either left intact or cut into tiles.

In response to the evolving global perspective towards environmentally friendly construction, many new and re-mastered colors in Trend Q contain measured amounts of either post-consumer or post-industrial recycled materials.

Colors & Finishes
There are 49 colors in the Trend Q standard color line. Fifteen colors contain various percentages of post-consumer recycled content, and twenty contain 70% post-industrial recycled material. Fourteen colors are made by more traditional means. The percentage of recycled content for each color is noted below.

Due to the nature of the product, finishes vary from color to color but typically range from a high-polish to a semi-polished surface.

Sizes
Standard nominal (and actual) sizes are: 12"x12" (11.75"x11.75"), 24"x24" (23.5"x23.5"), and 16"x48" (15.75"x47.25"). All tiles and slabs have a thickness of 1/4" (0.26"). Special sizes are available upon request.

Applications
Trend Q is highly durable, easy to maintain, stain resistant and slip resistant (based on ASTM C1028 test results). Tiles are suitable for interior and exterior walls and floors, including heavy-traffic commercial flooring applications.
