Indian Granite is known for its compactness (low porosity), its high resistance to compression, its hardness and tenacity. It is resistant to mechanical use and traction or breakage. All these properties make granite the most versatile and universal choice for a wide variety of applications like Flooring, Wall Paneling, Exterior Cladding, Kitchen Platforms, Vanity Tops, Table Tops, Kerb Stones, Tomb Stones and many other areas. chopping on granite is not recommended, simply because steel knives will swiftly lose their edge, blunted by the hard stone. Its smooth dense structure also means that it provides few havens for bacteria, and is therefore ideally suited for kitchen work tops.
