Innovating for Safety: Cabtec’s Endorsement of Zero-Silica Stone
Supporting Innovation: Our Support for Zero-Silica Solutions
In a significant move towards enhancing workplace safety and environmental sustainability, Cabtec is proud to support the recent industry shift towards zero-silica benchtops. This initiative, Better Benchtops by AGB Stone, aims to eliminate the health risks associated with silica dust, a known cause of the potentially fatal lung disease silicosis.
Why Zero-Silica Matters
Silica, commonly found in traditional stone benchtops, poses severe health risks when inhaled as dust during fabrication and installation. Recognizing these dangers, AGB Stone has pioneered the development of zero-silica engineered stone, providing a safer alternative for both workers and homeowners. This innovative product not only ensures a healthier work environment but also maintains the durability and aesthetic appeal of traditional stone benchtops.

Some have been a vocal advocate for safer kitchen environments, while others have emphasized the sustainability and safety benefits of zero-silica products.
