How does Caesarstone quartz withstand heat? Caesarstone quartz is structurally more heat resistant in comparison to other stones, including granite, however any stone material can potentially be damaged by sudden and rapid temperature changes. Therefore, using inexpensive and readily available trivets is always recommended, especially when using cooking units such as electric frying pans, crock pots and toaster ovens. Do not put hot cookware directly on the Caesarstone surface.
