TV Presenter and Environmentalist Ben Fogle Updates Kitchen with Silestone®

by Francesca

The leading quartz surface, Silestone® by Cosentino, has been selected by the award-winning TV presenter and environmentalist Ben Fogle for his home kitchen.  Best known for presenting on BBC, ITV, Channel 5 and Discovery, including on the hit series New Lives in the Wild, Ben is also a keen writer, with nine Sunday Times Best Selling books.  A passionate wildlife advocate, Ben was appointed as the UN Environment’s “Patron of the Wilderness” in 2017, which sees Ben exploring the world and contributing to global outreach programmes to minimise our impact on the environment.  With two young children at home, Silestone® was the perfect choice for Ben’s busy home kitchen due to its superior technical properties.

Fabricated by Rock Revelations, Silestone® Yukon was chosen for Ben’s home kitchen worktops, its elegant natural stone colour providing a stunning contrast to Ben’s rich green Neptune cabinetry and metallic cabinetry handles, wall lighting and cookware which hangs proudly on display.  Providing a cohesive and streamlined look, a matching Silestone® Integrity sink crafted from one piece of Silestone® offers the advantage of a high resistance to scratches, stains and heat for easy cleaning and maintenance.

Silestone Yukon

Silestone® Yukon, like all Silestone® products, offers a natural finish that is not only beautiful, but also comes with advanced technical properties.  Made from a large proportion of quartz, Silestone® by Cosentino is a practical choice for kitchen surfaces, where daily use is high. Extremely resistant to stains and scratches, Silestone® also boasts a very low liquid absorption rate, repelling liquid and facilitating easy daily cleaning. NSF International has awarded Silestone® with NSF certification, highlighting the safety of the surface when in contact with food.  Integrity by Silestone® is a minimalist kitchen sink range which also boasts the same practical benefits as Silestone® surfaces, crucial for key food preparation areas in the kitchen.
