TYPES OF NATURAL STONE

GRANITE
[Hardness 6 to 7 on the Mohs scale]

The word 'granite' comes from the Latin word 'grain' and references the coarse-grained quartz and feldspar DNA of this well-known igneous rock. Granite is usually pink, grey, or white in colour. Supremely durable, weather-resistant, scratch-resistant, and beautiful when polished, granite has long been the material of choice for both outdoor and indoor projects. Granite kitchen benchtops are ideal as they will not scuff, discolour, or experience damage from heat. 

MARBLE
[Hardness 3 to 5 on the Mohs scale]

Sophisticated and inherently warm, the metamorphic rock known as marble is quarried from mountainous regions throughout the world. No two pieces of marble look the same, and for this reason, marble is and has always been considered a luxury design feature. Visually pleasing and durable, marble benchtops, marble kitchen island benches, flooring, wall cladding, table tops, showers, stone sinks, and bathroom surfaces are an ideal application for marble stone. Marble is more porous than granite and can suffer damage from kitchen tasks such as hot pans, cutting and acid staining.

QUARTZITE
[Hardness 7 on Mohs scale]

Quartzite is a hard metamorphic rock that emerges when sandstone undergoes extreme heating and tectonic compression. Modern home designers and architects favour the use of quartzite as it combines the beauty of marble patterns with the durability of granite. Quartzite is resistant to kitchen spills, heat and abrasions and will stand the test of time as a kitchen island benchtop or outdoor kitchen benchtop. For landscaping, quartzite is a great solution for garden pathways, paving, patios, or balconies and creates a wonderful wall cladding effect. 

LIMESTONE
[Hardness 2-3 on the Mohs Scale]

Limestone has been long celebrated for its durability and organic, neutral tones, which can be incorporated into various architectural and design projects. A stunning natural stone formed by shallow water sediments such as shell, coral and rock, limestone is a versatile option for home building. Limestone reflects heat and is often used poolside and in outdoor entertaining areas. Limestone tiles and pavers come in a variety of cuts, colours, and sizes to help achieve desired aesthetic impacts.
