Quartz Workers' Healthier Tomorrow: Making Quartz Work Away From Healthy Diseases
As a leading enterprise in the quartz slab industry for more than 30 years, Yeyang Stone has always inscribed 'employee health is the life of the enterprise' into the development gene. When the safety controversy of quartz slab processing caused public concern, we have already laid out the healthy quartz engineering project in advance, which lasted 5 years to complete the industrial revolution from traditional silica-containing products to 100% silica free quartz salb system. This self-disruption not only follows the new trends in the industry, but also redefines the boundaries of corporate responsibility for employee health.
1. Technological Breakthrough—Silica Free Quartz for Enhanced Safety
After the public opinion storm of the silicosis crisis in the quartz slab industry, a silent technological revolution is subverting the entire industrial chain. While NBC and other media focus on the lung disease risk of quartz processing workers, Yeyang Stone have quietly completed a comprehensive upgrade from material formulation to production processes.
After 5 years of research and development, we have successfully introduced silica free quartz products, which significantly reduce or eliminate harmful dust emissions during production and processing. This groundbreaking achievement not only enhances product safety but also ensures a healthier work environment for our employees.Yeyang silica free quartz utilizes eco-friendly mineral composites, maintaining the strength and durability of traditional quartz surfaces while allowing for low-dust or even dust-free cutting. We have adopted wet-cutting technology in several product lines, integrated with automated cleaning systems to maintain optimal production conditions. All equipment undergoes regular maintenance by our technical team, ensuring workers operate in a safe and comfortable environment. Our zero silica slabs and countertops have undergone rigorous in-house testing and have received multiple environmental and health safety certifications.
2. Health Protection Program—Caring for Every Worker
Beyond product and process innovations, we have also enhanced our employee welfare initiatives with a comprehensive health protection program, including:
Regular Health Checkups: All production staff receive routine occupational health screenings to ensure early detection and prevention of potential risks.
Personalized Protection Plans: Employees are equipped with high-grade protective gear, including professional dust masks and optimized ventilation systems.
Health & Safety Training: Regular workshops educate employees on occupational health, ensuring adherence to safe operating procedures.
Occupational Disease Insurance: We provide full occupational disease insurance coverage, ensuring comprehensive protection for our workforce.
3. Silica Free Quartz/Zero silica Quartz—A Healthier Choice
1) What is Silica free quartz?
Silica Free Quartz（Zero Silica Quartz）is an innovative engineered stone designed to eliminate crystalline silica, a hazardous mineral linked to respiratory diseases like silicosis. Traditional quartz slabs contain high silica content, releasing harmful dust during cutting and processing. Silica free quartz slab replaces silica with eco-friendly mineral composites, maintaining the strength, durability, and aesthetics of natural stone while significantly reducing health risks for workers. This next-generation material supports safer workplaces, improved air quality, and sustainable production.
2) A Sustainable and Health-Conscious Choice
As an industry innovator, we strongly advocate for the use of silica free quartz products—not only as a responsibility to our workers but also as a commitment to our customers. Zero silica quartz surfaces produce minimal to no silica dust during processing while maintaining exceptional strength, wear resistance, and aesthetics, offering consumers a healthier and safer choice. Zero silica quartz is ideal for residential kitchens, commercial spaces, and luxury hotels, ensuring indoor air quality and eliminating health hazards associated with traditional quartz processing. We believe these products will define the future of the market, promoting a more sustainable and health-conscious lifestyle for consumers.
3) A Dual Commitment to Safety and Quality
Yeyanf zero silica quartz slabs are not only a symbol of health and safety but also of superior quality. All our silica free quartz slabs have been certified by NSF (National Sanitation Foundation), guaranteeing compliance with food-grade safety standards, making them suitable for direct food contact environments. NSF certification validates that our products meet the highest industry standards in composition, safety, and durability. Whether in home kitchens, restaurant countertops, or hospital laboratories, zero silica quartz ensures unparalleled safety and hygiene.
4. Corporate Responsibility—Following the TrendsTowards Sustainable Health
As one of the leading company in the quartz industry, we are committed not only to our own development but also to driving the industry towards a healthier and more sustainable future. While researching eco-friendly raw materials, we actively promote green production methods, reducing carbon footprints and minimizing resource waste.
"When our workers can breathe freely in the workshop, we know that all our efforts are worthwhile." — Our CEO Sophia Huanga recent employee conference.From material innovation to building a healthy ecosystem, we are proving through concrete actions that a company’s core competitiveness is not only about technological breakthroughs but also about respect for life.
5. Yeyang Stone—Ensuring Every Stone Carries a Mission of Health.
Moving forward, we will continue investing in silica free quartz slab R&D, expanding our silica free quartz slab product line, and providing safer, more sustainable zero silica quartz solutions for customers worldwide. At the same time, we will strengthen employee care initiatives to ensure that everyone working with us enjoys a secure, healthy, and fulfilling career. We firmly believe—protecting workers' breathing is protecting the conscience of the manufacturing industry.
