Teresina Soapstone Encourages Homeowners to Buy Soapstone to "Green" Their Surroundings

Roseville, CA, November 20, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Teresina Soapstone, distributors of soapstone countertops and slabs, is proud to be the largest supplier of soapstone slabs in the Northern California region. In addition to supplying a quality product, the company wants to encourage homeowners to buy soapstone because it is a “green” option for those who want to decorate their home with natural materials that are bacteria resistant and do not require harsh, toxic chemicals to keep clean.

Teresina Soapstone is committed to supplying the highest quality soapstone to the greater Northern California area. Their new Industrial Avenue showroom has the largest selection of soapstone slabs to accommodate builders and interior designers working on all types of projects. Soapstone adds character to kitchens, bathrooms and floors, providing a durable surface that can handle just about anything.

The majority of the soapstone Teresina sells is mined in Brazil at minimal impact to the environment. Unlike marble and granite, soapstone mining does not require cutting into the surrounding landscape or digging deep into the earth in order to retrieve it. In addition, soapstone is used in its natural state with no sealers or other finishing products that utilize toxic chemicals. It is also capable of retaining heat and cold, contributing to the stabilization of temperature in the rooms it is used in. This makes it extremely energy efficient.

If respecting the environment is a goal when renovating, soapstone slabs should be considered for projects that would normally utilize granite or marble.
