Granite for Architectural Specification
Afrika National Granite partners with architects and specification professionals to integrate natural stone into residential, commercial, and public projects. Our Rustenburg granite offers a Mohs hardness of 6-7, water absorption below 0.4%, and a compressive strength exceeding 200 MPa — properties that make it suitable for structural facades, high-traffic flooring, and exposed exterior cladding. We supply technical data sheets, sample sets, and specification support to help architects confidently specify granite for their projects.

Specification Support from Quarry to Completion
Rustenburg granite's fine-grained gabbro composition delivers exceptional density (approximately 2,950 kg/m³), minimal porosity, and outstanding freeze-thaw resistance. These properties make it suitable for exterior cladding in coastal and high-altitude environments, commercial flooring in airports and retail centres, and structural facades where long-term performance is non-negotiable. We provide full technical data sheets including flexural strength, thermal expansion, and slip resistance ratings for each finish.
Six Finishes for Every Architectural Intent
Specify Rustenburg granite in polished (mirror-gloss for interior feature walls), honed (matte for contemporary flooring), flamed (textured for slip-resistant outdoor surfaces), antique (brushed for heritage projects), sandblasted (uniform texture for exterior cladding), or sawn-cut (raw for industrial aesthetics). Each finish changes the stone's visual character and functional properties, giving architects precise control over the material's appearance and performance in context.
Proven Material Properties for Demanding Applications
Our team works directly with architects and specification writers to provide material samples, technical documentation, BIM-compatible product data, and project-specific recommendations. Whether you're specifying cladding panels for a commercial tower or selecting countertop stone for a luxury residential development, we support the process from initial concept through to on-site delivery and quality verification.
