May, 2008 -- Due to an overwhelming demand for stain-resistant granite countertops, Innovative Stone® debuts its premium, anti-stain natural stone countertop collection, called Everlife™. This new environmentally conscious collection does not require sealing—typical for most countertop surfaces—and is protected by Innovative Stone's breakthrough PermaShield™ technology.
Innovative Stone
Everlife is comprised of a global collection of designer-selected granite, marble, quartzite, and soapstone colors. The PermaShield™ protected surface performs unlike sealers—that need to be applied liberally across the entire countertop surface—whereas this process covers microscopic staining paths below the surface of granite. These paths are infused with molecular technology causing them to adopt water and oil-repelling properties. As a result of this revolutionary process, PermaShield™ does not affect or alter the surface of granite, leaving no added color or coating.
