What is Colonial Ice Granite?

Colonial Ice Granite is quartz mineral pressed with resin in a factory, so it arrives non-porous and stays that way. Installed, engineered quartz runs $120 to $150 per square foot, below granite, quartzite and marble. The closest matches Ace also carries are Himalaya White Granite.

What to expect once it is installed

The ratings that decide whether the finished counter matches the sample.

Piece-to-piece variation: High

Graded high for piece-to-piece variation, which means the sample and the delivery can read differently. Judge it from several pieces.

Certifications

On the certification side, GreenGuard Gold · NSF · USGBC/LEED. The Gold standard was written for schools, which is a stricter bar than a kitchen would ever have to clear. NSF is the food-safety mark — a sanitation rating for surfaces that touch food, not an emissions one. Worth a LEED credit too, on the jobs that track them.

What to put next to it

Built from the color we measured off Colonial Ice Granite itself, not from its name.

Measured, not guessed: #A4A296, mid-light and near-neutral. The nearest color we hold pairings for is Concrete / Cement Gray. It reads as a neutral, so it will sit behind whatever else you choose instead of competing with it.

Cabinets

Pure White — soft modern; keeps a small kitchen light without going all-white. Against this surface it is a step lighter, which lifts the surface without washing it out solid

Backsplash

Terracotta / Clay — Concrete gray is the cold plunge terracotta needs — without it the clay goes theme-restaurant, with it the wall reads earthy and editorial.. Against this surface it is a step darker — enough separation to read as two materials current

Steer away from

Light Gray — Flat gray on flat gray is the 2015 flip-house special — no undertone tension, so the whole room goes dishwater the moment the light drops.

Questions about Colonial Ice Granite

Answered from this product’s own spec sheet and our measurement of it.

What size is Colonial Ice Granite?

Colonial Ice Granite comes in one size, 3 cm. One module across the whole wall keeps the layout simple — what you approve in the sample is what you get.

Where can I use Colonial Ice Granite?

Its maker rates it for countertops · wall · flooring. We hold to that rating when we quote — installing outside it is how a warranty claim gets denied.

What color is Colonial Ice Granite, really?

We measured its own swatch at #A4A296 — mid-light and near-neutral. It sits close to neutral, so it takes direction from the cabinets rather than fighting them. Names are marketing; that number is what the camera saw.

What is Colonial Ice Granite made of?

Colonial Ice Granite is a granite tile, which is what decides how it is cared for — see the sealing answer below.

Does Colonial Ice Granite need sealing?

Yes. Granite takes a sealer and genuinely needs one. Applying it is a wipe-on job you do yourself in about ten minutes, and a properly sealed top shrugs off oil, wine and the corner by the cooktop.
