Diresco Quartz BU040 Nature Silver is a Belgian warm grey engineered quartz surface with a calm stone look. At ROSSITTIS we carry it for worktops, bathrooms and exterior surfaces whenever a soft silver grey with technical resilience is called for.
Nature Silver is not a hard industrial grey but a warm silver tone with a calm, slightly stony presence. The surface looks restrained and modern at once. In kitchens, bathrooms and contract interiors in particular, that is interesting when a neutral grey is wanted that does not appear cold or technically empty. The tone combines well with timber, pale renders, stainless steel and dark metal surfaces.
Diresco produces this material in Belgium as an engineered quartz surface of the Nature line. The slabs are offered in the format 318 x 155 cm and in 12, 20 and 30 mm. The surface is sealed, almost non-porous and, according to Diresco, suitable for interior and exterior applications. The surface finishes available from stock are listed in the »Finishes« block further down. For planners that is helpful, because worktop, vanity unit and outdoor kitchen can be brought together in the language of the material.
In everyday use, Nature Silver is suitable for worktops, vanity units, splashbacks, wall claddings and selected exterior surfaces. At ROSSITTIS, Diresco Quartz BU040 Nature Silver is available as a raw slab, worktop, splashback, vanity top, tile, window sill, wall cladding and for further made-to-measure components.
Compared with a pure concrete look, Nature Silver looks somewhat finer and more homely. Compared with pale grey natural granite, the surface remains more even and easier to care for. That is precisely why the material is strong when calm architectural colours with little material risk are called for.
The honest assessment: Nature Silver is not a material for strong effects. Its strength lies in calm, combinability and resilient neutrality.

DIRESCO Quarz BU040 Nature Silver is available in a range of finishes. The finish affects appearance, feel and the care it needs.
Polished
A glossy surface with the highest possible degree of colour intensity — the standard finish in the engineered stone and engineered quartz segment. Easy to care for in everyday use and resistant to common household acids. A prestigious choice for kitchen worktops, wall claddings and exposed surfaces with a classic high-gloss character.
Velvet
The surface is brushed, much like a satin finish — softer minerals are removed and a subtle depth with a matte effect is created. The velvety soft feel is characteristic and design-led. Easy to maintain and suited to everyday use; an elegant choice for demanding kitchen and wall surfaces where a softly tactile appearance is wanted.
Care & fabrication
Nature Silver needs no classic natural stone impregnation, because as an engineered quartz the surface is almost non-porous. That makes maintenance in everyday use markedly easier.
For cleaning and care, water, a microfibre cloth and a mild cleaner are enough. On grey surfaces, limescale, grease and films of dirt should be removed regularly so that the tone stays clear and even.
Avoid abrasive sponges, aggressive solvents and strongly alkaline cleaners. For periodic deep cleaning, intensive cleaners suitable for quartz make more sense than abrasive household products.
On exterior surfaces the same principle applies: clean and care regularly, do not let deposits stand permanently and ensure clean water run-off in the construction detailing.

Nature Silver or concrete-look porcelain?
