Australia's workplace ministers have agreed to implement a national ban on engineered stone, over concerns its use has led to a surge in silicosis cases among workers.
I’m sure you’ll find breathing stone dust doesn’t do you any favour’s either. Strange to be they banned the product instead of mandating wet saws or something.
No it isn’t.
How about real stone? That’s pretty analogous to fake stone. Wood isn’t even pretending.

Right? Use filters yo.
I didn’t mean in the analogous sense. I just meant other materials that can be used for bench tops more broadly.
And of course you can use real stone but be prepared to sell an organ to pay for it.
Funnily enough, we ended up with a very pretty real granite in our kitchen last year because it was 25% cheaper than the engineered options we found.
Very good luck because it doesn’t normally work that way!
