Sempre (Cimstone) is the perfect choice for homeowners who want a deeply established, highly reliable brand that offers premium Bretonstone quality at an accessible mid-market price.
As one of the earliest adopters of quartz technology, the brand formerly known as Cimstone has been fitted in thousands of UK homes. Sempre carries forward this legacy of flawless reliability and trade trust.
Sempre slabs are manufactured using original Italian Breton technology. This intensive compaction process guarantees a dense, structurally perfect slab that outlasts cheaper, unbranded alternatives.
The newly refreshed Sempre collection perfectly balances timeless classics with modern trends. Whether you need a sparkling white for a compact kitchen or a striking, veined marble effect for a large island, the range is incredibly diverse.
Sempre consistently hits the sweet spot between high-end manufacturing and budget-friendly pricing, making it a favourite among architects and kitchen designers.
Because Sempre quartz is engineered under extreme vacuum pressure and vibration, the resulting surface is completely non-porous. This creates a highly hygienic, antibacterial worktop that naturally blocks stains from wine, coffee, spices and cooking oils. You will never need to apply chemical sealants or specialist waxes to a Sempre worktop. To maintain its beautiful factory finish, simply wipe the surface clean with a soft microfibre cloth and warm soapy water.
| Feature | Sempre (Formerly Cimstone) | Newer / Unestablished Brands |
|---|---|---|
| Brand Heritage | Decades of UK market presence | Unknown long-term reliability |
| Manufacturing Method | Authentic Bretonstone Technology | Often unlicensed machinery |
| Price Point | Highly competitive mid-range | Variable (often budget-focused) |
| Warranty Length | Comprehensive residential warranty | Often limited to short terms |
The transition from Cimstone to Sempre in the UK market was a strategic rebranding designed to refresh the product line and align with modern, global design trends. The manufacturing facility, the premium Bretonstone technology and the rigorous quality control processes remain exactly the same.
Yes, it is exactly the same high-quality engineered stone. If you previously had a Cimstone worktop and loved its durability and finish, you will receive the exact same premium product when you order a Sempre quartz surface today.
Absolutely. The advanced engineering process ensures that Sempre quartz is entirely non-porous. Liquid spills cannot penetrate the surface of the stone, meaning everyday kitchen accidents will not leave permanent marks, provided they are wiped away with standard soapy water.
