Are there non-toxic quartz kitchen counters?

我有疾病，不能忍受任何类型的气味和主流的建筑产品，如粉笔、油漆、胶水等。我们已经挑选了我们的石英台面，需要知道它是否可以使用低voc和无毒的材料来安装，而不必妥协于BPA含量和甲醛等。安装人员需要使用环氧树脂将底部安装槽连接到柜台，疯狂胶水和透明硅胶。任何成功使用无毒产品的经验和具体任务的产品名称将是有帮助的。谢谢你！
There was a similar question a few months ago on our French website (Ecohabitation) where a reader had found an adhesive that claimed to be 100% non-toxic and they were asking if it was available locally in Quebec. If a product like that existed it would almost certainly carry a certification, and a researcher at Ecohabitation checked throughEcologo,Greenguard,Green Seal and theScientific Certification System(SCS), and that particular product did not appear anywhere.
To the best of our knowledge there are no epoxies that are non-toxic and safe for those withchemical sensitivities, so if one existed it would be big news. We can’t say for sure there aren’t any, so if by some chance you are able to find one please let us know. You can learn more about stone and other green kitchen counters here -

Engineered stone is a composite material made of crushed stone bound together by an polymer resin. Some versions use cement mix as the binder. Marble and quartz are the most commonly used crusted stones.
