Revolutionary New Protection For Granite

Granite countertops are the pride of every kitchen—until a stain ruins its beautiful surface. Now, homeowners can rest easier with SenGuard™ stain protection. Cosentino, a worldwide leader in natural stone, is exclusively launching SenGuard—a technologically advanced application process that is used to protect granite from staining while allowing the stone to breathe and preserve its natural color. Designed to maintain its properties and performance for up to 15 years, SenGuard eliminates the need to seal granite countertops once or twice a year.

“SenSa with SenGuard empowers homeowners to go on with their busy lives while giving peace of mind,” says Roberto Payan, granite division manager for Cosentino. Unsealed granite is prone to stains, scorches, bacterial growth and water spots. Common granite sealers attach to the stone via a mechanical bond of large molecular agents. However, these types of sealers maintain a weaker bond that is easily broken down by common household cleaners which take away from the natural beauty of the stone.

Anchored to the stone surface via a chemical reaction, SenGuard provides a long-lasting, nearly impenetrable barrier for granite surfaces. Unlike common sealers, SenGuard offers a superior protective shield that chemically anchors to the stone’s surface creating a permanent bond.

SenGuard treated granite can withstand temperatures up to 572° Fahrenheit. Treated granite also is water-resistant which allows for a cleaner, drier surface that deters the growth of mold and mildew. Suitable for indoor and outdoor applications, SenGuard is UV-resistant and will not be affected by solar rays. SenGuard can withstand the use of typical household cleaners for a fresher, more durable surface. Backed by an industry-leading, 15-year warranty against staining, SenGuard is the ideal solution for the maintenance of granite.

Each slab of SenSa Granite is one-of-a-kind and carefully quarried by Cosentino using state-of-the-art equipment to provide the highest quality stone. SenSa Granite provides a unique look for every home and boasts only the highest quality slabs. “SenGuard ensures that the natural beauty of your SenSa granite countertop will remain intact for years to come,” says Betsy Smith, local manager of SileStone of North Carolina, the local distributor of Cosentino and SenSa products.

Sensa Granite colors were carefully selected to include all the various shades of the granite color spectrum. SenSa Granite colors are: Dakota Mahogany, Juparana Gold, Floresta Verde, Tuscany Brown, Cosmos Brown, Ubatuba, Giallo Latina, Absolute Black, Baltic Brown, Black Galaxy, Blanco Leblon, Blue Pearl, Emerald Pearl, Giallo Ornamental, Giallo Vicenza, Caledonia, Luna Pearl, Santa Cecilia, Verde Butterfly and Tropical Brown.

Cosentino, a global natural stone giant, began harvesting precious stones from the finest quarries in Europe close to a century ago. Today, Cosentino has combined its commitment to providing the highest quality in natural quartz with a dedication to innovation and technology. SenSa by Cosentino products come from Macael, in the south of Spain, where Cosentino was established more than 70 years ago.u
