granite

An excellent choice for kitchen countertops, floors, and other heavily used surfaces.

For centuries Granite Being one of the hardest stone types, has been one of the top picks as an exterior use material due to its inherent strength, abrasion resistance and superior durability in
harsh weather, the use of granite has skyrocketed in residential interior applications and are likely to keep it one of the preeminent material selections available to today's consumer.

Some synthetic surfaces scratch easily, while the hardness of the minerals comprising most granite surpasses that of the utensils that are used on them, resulting in excellent scratch resistance. Granite is typically heat resistant up to temperatures of 250C (480F), although direct application of localized heat sources is not recommended, since strong thermal gradients within the stone can initiate cracking. Studies of bacteria retention on common countertop surfaces have proven granite to be superior to the majority of surfaces employed for that purposes.

Available in an endless array of colors, granite's durability, longevity, make it ideal for kitchen countertops and other heavily used surfaces, including table tops and floors.
