Lebih murah dari granit?

Hey there! I’m a mining equipment maker, and today we’re answering a popular question: Is quartz cheaper than granite? Quick truth: It varies! We’ll compare costs for slabs (like kitchen counters) and aggregates (crushed rock for building). Plus, I’ll share expert tips on buying crushing machines to make cheaper aggregates. Get ready—we’re going deep!

Slab Showdown: Quartz vs. Granite Prices

What Drives Slab Costs?

Quartz slabs are engineered (90% crushed quartz + resin), while granite is 100% natural. Granite’s price swings wildly based on rarity, color, and origin. Fancy Brazilian granite? Mahal! Common gray granite? Wallet-friendly. Quartz is more consistent—brands like Silestone or Caesarstone control pricing.

Price Comparison (Per Square Foot)

Bahan	Low End	Mid-Range	Premium
Quartz	$50	$75	$150
Granit	$40	$65	$200

Granite wins at entry-level, but quartz dominates mid-tier consistency. Premium unfamiliar granit? Ouch—it’ll cost ya!

Long-Term Value

Quartz resists stains and scratches—no sealing needed. Granite requires yearly sealing. Lebih 10 bertahun-tahun, quartz saves $200+ in maintenance. My take? For busy homes, quartz’s durability = smarter savings.

Aggregate Angle: Crushed Quartz vs. Granit

Agregat 101

Aggregates = crushed stone for concrete, jalan, and landscaping. Di Sini, production costs rule pricing. Granite is tougher to crush (high abrasiveness), demanding heavier machine. Quartz is softer, crushing faster with less wear on equipment.

Price Per Ton (Delivered)

Bahan	Price Range	Faktor kunci
Quartz Aggregate	$25–$35	Lower hardness, easier processing
Granite Aggregate	$30–$50	Higher crushing energy, transport costs

*Quartz aggregates are 10-20% cheaper for small projects. But bulk granite? Negotiate! Volume discounts matter.*

The Transport Twist

Granite quarries are often remote. Hauling heavy stone = 30% of total costs. Quartz deposits? More widespread. Closer to cities = lower delivery fees.

Crushing Machinery: Your Secret Weapon for Savings

Why Invest in a Crusher?

Buying pre-crushed aggregates? Meh. Crushing your own quartz/granite? Game-changer! Initial investment pays off fast—especially for granite, where retail markups hit 40%.

Top Crusher Picks for Quartz & Granit

Penghancur Rahang: Best for granite’s first-stage crushing. Handles big chunks like a champ.
Penghancur Kerucut: Ideal for quartz—smoother output for high-value aggregates.
Mobile Crusher: My fave! Process on-site (saves transport $$).

Tip: Untuk granit, prioritize abrasion-resistant manganese steel parts. Quartz? Focus on precision settings.

ROI Breakdown: Crushing Your Own Aggregates

Let’s say you produce200 tons/day of granite aggregate:

Faktor biaya	Amount
Crusher Setup (Mobile Plant)	$300,000
Daily Operation (Fuel, Labor)	$1,000
Output Value ($40/ton)	$8,000
Daily Profit	$7,000

Payback period: Under 6 bulan! Data sourced fromsbmchina.com’s case studies.

Maximizing Profit

Target construction zones near quarry.
Sell quartz sand to glass manufacturers (premium pricing!).
Use granite dust for paving—zero waste!

Key Takeaways: Which is Cheaper?

Slabs: Granite wins entry-level ($40/sf), but quartz rules mid-range value.
Agregat: Quartz is cheaper retail ($25/ton), but crushing your own granite slashes costs long-term.
Crushing ROI: Invest in mobile crushers—dominate local markets with on-site processing.

Final Thoughts

As a machinery guy, I’m biased: Control your supply chain! Crushing equipment unlocks granite / quartz savings you can’t ignore. Whether you’re a contractor or quarry owner, the math is clear: Produce aggregates yourself, and you’ll laugh all the way to the bank.
