Where Stone Meets Tech: Surfaces That Transform How You Live

In an ever-evolving era, the modern homeowner is looking for ways to bring innovation and function into their home without sacrificing aesthetics. That’s why we’ve embraced a new wave of surface technologies that blend seamlessly with the timeless beauty of stone.

Here’s a look at three of the cutting-edge products we support.

1. FreePower: Wireless Charging, Reinvented for Stone

With FreePower®, wireless charging is intuitive, invisible, and beautifully embedded right into your stone surfaces.

Unlike traditional wireless chargers, FreePower offers full-surface charging, meaning you can place your phone or earbuds anywhere within the charging zone. On the fabrication side, we mill the underside of the material to ensure the unit fits perfectly in the pocket. Then, we install FreePower beneath your countertop, whether it’s quartz or natural stone.

A fun feature of FreePower is the charging halo that lights up from underneath the surface, so you know exactly where to place your device. For the light to show through the stone, it’s recommended to select a translucent material. Want to see if your dream stone is a good fit for FreePower? Check out their translucency database

Ideal for: kitchen islands, workspaces, nightstands, common spaces, and even bathroom vanities.

2. Invisacook: The Cooktop You Can’t See

No visible burners. No bulky appliances. Invisacook is a revolution in modern kitchens. Installed beneath your countertop, Invisacook turns the surface itself into an induction cooking area and allows for a clean, uninterrupted surface. 

Invisacook and Cosentino recently announced their partnership, allowing Invisacook’s technology to be used with Dekton® surfaces.

Although we do not install or sell Invisacook directly, we fabricate and install your stone with Invisacook integration in mind, ensuring optimal performance and durability. It’s the ultimate solution for tight spaces or homeowners who value minimalist design without sacrificing functionality.

Ideal for: prepping, cooking, and serving, all on the same sleek stone surface.

3. StoneGuard: Invisible Protection, Lasting Beauty

Luxury stone deserves luxury protection. StoneGuard® is a high-performance, transparent film that safeguards your countertops from stains, scratches, and etching. Its high heat and chemical tolerance protect stone surfaces from acidic foods and harsh chemicals.

Stoneguard works with the best film installers across the country, and we’ve partnered with ATD Stone Protection in Garner, NC, to maintain our commitment to craftsmanship. Installed directly over your stone, it’s barely visible but highly effective. Another plus is that there are also two available finishes: high-gloss (Clear) or satin (Satin), so your aesthetic is never sacrificed.

It is especially ideal for marble and other porous materials, as its layered, patented technology allows the stone to breathe while still protecting your stone.

The Future Is Seamless

Our goal has always been to create surfaces that are as functional as they are beautiful. With FreePower, Invisacook, and StoneGuard, we’re delivering smart living with your surfaces in mind.

Whether you’re designing your dream kitchen or upgrading your everyday routine, we’re here to bring innovation to the heart of your home.
