Dekton Nilium
Dekton Nilium
Dekton Nilium is the minimalist element of the Industrial series. Inspired by a silver metal, Dekton Nilium offers a subtle cocktail of white and grey shades. The delicate appearance of warm colours represents the beginning of the oxidation process of a material. It is tough, highly scratch resistant and durable. Nilium Incorporates Dekton Grip, an anti-slip solution for wet areas.
Due to its practically zero porosity, the ultra-compact Dekton surface is highly resistant to staining in day-to-day use and from chemical
products, making it ideal for use as a kitchen worktop and as a surface for other kinds of work, both inside and out.
Colour Band: 2

Sensitive Colour: No
Dekton Grip
Dekton Grip is the anti-slip solution for wet areas that also offers a smoothness that’s similar to standard finishes.
Dekton is an Ultra Compact surface that consists of a sophisticated blend of the raw materials used to produce the very latest in glass and porcelain as well as the highest quality quartz work surfaces. Through an exclusive technological process Dekton emulates in a few hours what it takes nature thousands of years, producing stunning results.
Joints
Dekton worktop joints are finished with a small ariss to the top edge. Silicone sealant is applied to prevent water ingression.
Heavily Veined / Particulated Colours
These colours are highly unlikely to have continuous flow of the pattern when 2 sheets or 2 pieces of the same sheet are seamed together. The change of pattern will show up on the seam area
Thermal expansion
Due to thermal expansion Dekton can expand up to 1mm per metre.
Overhangs and supports
Any overhang extending more than 300mm must be supported.
Upstands
Upstands less than 100mm high are extremely fragile and are not recommended.
Upstands are not normally cut from the same slab as the work surfaces and therefore an exact colour match is not possible.
Handling
Extra labour will be required on any worktops over 120kg. This will be supplied at no cost to bluestone-uk.com
If you choose a polished finish they will be more easy to wipe down when compared to natural finishes which hold dirt more due to the surface texture.
This means Natural Finishes take a little longer to clean than Polished but if you use cleaning information in our Cleaning and Maintenance for Ultra Compact Surfaces Guide (link below) you will be able to remove the most stubborn stains.
However Natural Finishes are more resilient to scratching than polished if objects are dragged across the worktops (which should be avoided).
The best advice is to wipe up spillages when they happen and dry the worktop off with a tea towel,
Cleaning and Maintenance for Ultra Compact Surfaces.pdf
Scratches
Ultra Compacts are highly scratch resistant but not scratch proof.
Staining
Ultra Compact worktops are incredibly hard and non-porous and will not absorb liquids, but it is still possible that grease, wine, coffee, nicotine, fruit juices and other strongly coloured substances can stain the surface if not properly protected or if the spills are not cleaned up immediately.
Hygienic
Polished Ultra Compact worktops are naturally hygienic as they are non-porous
Handling
For installation of worktops weighing above 120kg, you will need to supply additional labour at no cost to Worktops.net, every additional 75kg requires an extra person to assist with lifting.
Key Features
UV Resistant
Dekton is highly resistant to ultra violet (UV) light and will not fade or degrade over time making it perfect for both indoor and outdoor applications
Durable
Dekton is one of the most durable worktops, with over 5 times the flexural strength of granite, Dekton has a high level of resistance to external aggressions
Heat Resistant
Dekton is heat resistant, so no need to worry about those hot pots and pans when you are cooking
Non-Porous
Bacteria and mould have nowhere to take root. When it looks clean, it really is clean
Easy to Clean
With a non-porous surface that prevents dirt and stains from penetrating the material.
