What is lamination?
Lamination is a process used to join two pieces of Viatera together to create a thicker edge height. An example
would be when two pieces of 2cm thick material are joined together to form a 4cm (1-1/2”) edge. Lamination
lines or seams may be visible where the two pieces meet.
What does my 15-year warranty cover?
LG Hausys expressly warrants repairing or replacing Viatera free of charge, if it fails due to any manufacturing
defect during the rst 15 years after installation. For additional warranty information, please refer to the warranty
section in this guide.
Is the surface of Viatera uniform and consistent?
The manufacturing process of Viatera melds nature and modern technology into an unparalleled surfacing
material. The color of each Viatera slab is dependent on the natural materials as well as the colors mixed within
the resin binder. The manufacturing process is designed to blend the raw materials in such a way as to imitate
the look of natural stone. As with any product made with predominantly natural materials, there can be some
variation in background color and pattern, as well as aggregate size and distribution. Pigment concentrations
can occur up to the size of a US quarter dollar. All of this serves to enhance the natural characteristics of the
quartz surface material and is in no way to be considered a defect. Variations to be expected will typically be
greater than in solid surface but less than in granite. Color, background and or shade variations not visible from
6 feet away are considered acceptable.
What about environmental issues?
LG Hausys is committed to providing environmentally sensitive products that meet the demands of everyone
from its employees to designers, installers and consumers. The highest quality quartz surfacing material
available, Viatera is made of 93% natural quartz and is ideal for those who prefer the elegant look of stone in
a durable, easy-to-maintain product. Quartz is also one of the most abundant natural resources in the world.
