Born out of a soapstone
import and fabrication business, SPARQ Home is committed to using recycled
material exclusively to produce energy efficient, earth friendly, gourmet
kitchen products.
The Story
Founders Steve Chavez and
Justin English became frustrated with the mass of scrap soapstone leftover from
their kitchen countertop business that was ending up in a landfill. The industry was producing more scrap
than it could handle so they set out to make lemonade out of lemons.
Determined to create sustainable
products from this great natural resource, Chavez and English turned to the
stone’s natural properties of maintaining warm and cool temperatures.
The use of soapstone for
its temperature properties is as old as mankind. In fact, it is one of
the most effective natural materials this planet produces for conducting and
retaining temperature. Why not
harness its powers for the greater entertaining good?
Unlike granite or marble,
soapstone is the ONLY non-porous, odorless, tasteless, and a natural food safe
stone used in the home. This is when the SPARQ Home product line was
born.
Made in the USA &
Sustainably Focused
SPARQ Home is based in
Denver where the majority of our products are made. The remainder of the manufacturing is done in Massachusetts
for the purpose of keeping fuel and shipping usage low for customers on the
east coast. Through a network of
relationships, SPARQ Home re-proposes collected scrap material and is
transformed into beautiful, unique, quality kitchen products.
