Granite

---

Granite is an igneous natural stone, formed from cooled and solidified magma deep within the Earth's crust. This slow cooling process results in an extremely dense, hard-wearing material with a unique speckled appearance. Granite’s high strength, durability, and resistance to wear make it ideal for driveways, outdoor paving, commercial spaces, and benchtops.
