Natural Stone has been created as a result of millions of years of different geological changes that have taken place in the earth’s crust. This has resulted in the creation of a wide variety of vibrant colors and characteristics. Depending on the process, composition and characteristics, the Natural Stones have been categorized into Granite, Marble, Limestone, Travertine, Slate, Quartzite, Sandstone, Adoquin, Onyx, etc. Natural Stone has been a popular housing and building material all over the world for centuries. However, in America, wood has been the primary material used for housing. Natural Stones were mostly used for road construction and monuments. However, this trend is now shifting towards the usage of Natural Stones in the Entryway, Kitchens, Atriums, Bathrooms, Fireplaces, Floors, Facades and many other surfaces in homes and offices. With the flooding of our environment with artificial equipment and material, Americans look for relief at home, and Natural Stone gives a timeless, realistic feeling and proximity to nature. When compared to all the visible items like wallpaper, paints, curtains, appliances, furniture, etc, only Natural Stone gives the classic look and a distinctive feeling. Natural Stone gives a hint of luxury, while still being affordable. Natural Stone is the REAL thing in today’s artificially decorated homes. Natural Stone can be used for Flooring, Kitchen Counter Tops, Vanity Tops, Bathroom, Patios, Walkways, Fire Places, Facades, Wall cladding, Garden, Landscaping etc., practically on every surface, inside and outside of your house. Granite is the hardest and densest of all the Natural Stones. The main minerals that can be found in granite are Silicates, Feldspar & Quartz. Silicates do not react much to the acidic substances like lemon (citric acid), vinegar, alcohol etc., something found regularly in our kitchens. The second aspect to note is that Granite is highly durable and scratch resistant. This means that the kitchen countertop will not get easily scratched with the heavy traffic of knives and vessels on it, and retain its fine luster over a longer period of time as compared to other stones or Ceramic Tiles. Feldspar in granite makes it the least water absorbent (0.02-0.04%). This prevents liquids from seeping into the counter tops and staining the material. Hence, Granite is the first preference for Kitchen or Bar Counters.
