Dekton Khalo

Product Description

Inspired by the exotic Patagonia granite, Dekton Khalo is a sintered stone surface appropriate for kitchens, floors and bathrooms. Unlike natural granite, when exposed to colored food substances, Dekton Khalo does not scratch, stain, or etch. Moreover, this natural surface with grey hues adds the natural look of concrete and calcareous to modern and classic designs.

Natural Collection Dekton Khalo is made by mixing a highly developed mixture of porcelain, quartz, glass and raw materials. This results in an ultracompact surface that is highly heat resistant, freezing, scratching, staining. It is also suitable for indoor as well as for outdoor applications.

The Khalo color is born from the most remote mountains: an earthy backdropped surface with speckles and minerals scattered at random to bring natural aesthetics into any vacuum.

Dekton Khalo workstations offer shades of neutral hues and a velvety matt finish to elevate any room’s aesthetics. Moreover, this material’s inspiration is based not only on technicality and excellent results, but also on the use of organic colors and textures. Just like his counterpart Dekton Bergen, Khalo is easy to use and super practical.

The distinctive personality of the new Dekton Natural Khalo tones is suitable for use in both residential and commercial applications like kitchen workstations,splashbacks and wet areas.

What is Dekton?

Dekton is a sintered stone, made from a unique formula of natural quartz stone, porcelain, glass and other raw materials.  These organic components are blended and compressed with extreme pressure to result in a product that is impervious to staining and highly resistant to scratches and heat.
How heat resistant is Dekton?

Due to its technical characteristics, Dekton Khalo can withstand up to 300 C of heat. This enables the end-user to drag pots and pans directly on to its surfaces without damaging the stone. Despite this claim, it always best to use a trivet to place hot items from the oven.

How to Clean and Maintain Dekton surfaces?

For daily maintenance, you can use a window spray and kitchen cloth. Dekton is totally non-porous and it will never require sealants or additional coatings.

For Limescale marks, you can use white vinegar, leaving it to rest for one minute. Rinse with plenty of warm water and a scouring pad. Dry with a kitchen towel.

Khalo is available in thicknesses of 4 mm, 8 mm, 12 mm and 20 mm. We recommend 4 mm, 8mm and 12mm for cladding; and 12mm thickness and over for kitchen worktop and countertop applications.

Dekton uses a Sintered Particle which works at a molecular rather than granular level, which ensures the material has practically zero water porosity, enabling it to work on any environment and foods including colourants such as curry, lemon, coffee and ketchup.
