Benefits Of Granite In-Home Decoration
Natural granite is an ideal colour for interiors that require vibrancy by adding colour without becoming too much. Moreover, it can enlighten spaces lacking drama by adding a beautiful pattern of flowing grains in waves of darker speckles bringing an exciting addition to any room. Moreover, because granite does not contain calcium, its surface, like marble, is unaffected when exposed to acidic foods and juices.
The 4 Key Advantages of Azul Platino Granite
- Low upkeep: you can clean granite with neutral soap and water. Sealants are inexpensive, available online, and easy to apply once every 2-3 years.
- Durable: Brihadeeswarar Temple in southern India is over 1000 years old. Cleopatra’s Needle in London is from 1475 BC, and Nelson’s Column is from 1843. All three comprise 100% natural granite and are great examples of granite’s lasting durability.
- Affordable: Unless you select a rare type, granite is often one of the cheapest alternatives available, so if you are working with a limited budget, granite worktops are one of the best options you could consider. In addition, granite is often less expensive per square metre than quartz, marble and quartzite.
- Hard as Nails: Because granite rates 7 out of 10 on the Moh Scale of Hardness (it measures how hard you would need to scratch stone before you see damage), it offers higher resistance to scratches than most other natural surfaces. For example, limestone rates 2-3, marble rates 3, and slate rates 5.5. The other stone you can see in UK homes that match granite’s strength is quartzite, which also rates 7.
3 Practical Features
- Multi-functional: few other natural materials with higher versatility than natural granite. You can use it to make stunning living spaces like kitchens, bathrooms, and dining areas. In addition, you can use it externally to decorate gardens, create outdoor kitchens, or as floor or wall entrances, steps, and more.
- Natural & Luminous: Granite is unique in bringing life into dark spaces with exciting patterns and vibrant hues. The unlimited shapes and motifs on each slab are one-off artistic pieces you will not find anywhere else.
- Highly Resistant to Staining: because granite is denser than marble, limestone, and slate, it offers the highest stain-resistant properties among natural stones. It makes it ideal for worktops, splashbacks, or other coverings that sustain frequent spillages and splashes.
