How durable is porcelain? Porcelain is a compact mixture of raw minerals and pigments, manufactured in a way that makes the product very durable. It is scratch-resistant, stain-resistant, and heat-resistant. In terms of impact-resistance, porcelain can chip along the edge if impacted with enough force. Unlike many natural stones, porcelain offers consistency in its patterns. There are many color and patterns options available. However, please note that unlike quartz, porcelain’s pattern is only visible on the surface—the inside of the material does not contain a pattern. This means that polished edges will look different that the face of the material. Most porcelain slabs are available in a polished finish, while some slabs are available in a honed/matte finish and even a leathered (textured) finish.
