Sure, but the article focuses on "the booming popularity of countertops made of engineered stone", without specifying what that actually is.
How can I avoid buying these products or reduce exposure to these more dangerous materials if I'm a worker? Is porcelain "engineered stone"?
They should have ppe for any cutting, regardless, I agree.
- dghlsakjg 3y agoI think the issue is that people are opting for "engineered stone" over wooden laminate which doesn't have the same issue. So whether it is engineered or natural stone the problem is that stone cutting has dust that needs to be dealt with. But the emerging issue is that with the rising popularity of engineered stone, a higher percentage of countertops overall are hazardous to cut.
