Carrara Black Granite

Carrara Black Granite is a striking natural stone that commands attention with its deep black base interwoven with subtle white and grey veining. Part of Afrika National Granite's curated exotic stone collection, Carrara Black is sourced from premium international quarries and held in stock at our Alrode facility. This means South African fabricators, kitchen companies, and design professionals can access this sought-after material without the financial burden of arranging their own container imports. For fabricators and kitchen companies, this is a significant advantage: an average fabricator cannot justify importing a full container of a single exotic variety. By stocking Carrara Black, ANG allows you to purchase exactly what you need — from a single slab upward — at competitive pricing with immediate availability. Carrara Black Granite is exceptionally durable and low-maintenance, with natural resistance to heat, scratches, and stains. Its deep, consistent colour makes it particularly forgiving in high-traffic applications.

Our Process

Ensuring the highest quality granite is in your hands

We take pride in every step of our process, making sure that each product is crafted to meet the highest standards and carefully aligned with the specific requirements of every project.

Extraction

Granite is extracted in blocks through precision drilling and wire sawing, a method that minimizes waste while maintaining the integrity and quality of each block.

Quality Inspection

Each extracted block is inspected for quality, structural integrity, and suitability for cutting, ensuring the stone meets required standards before processing.

Cutting

Granite blocks are cut into slabs ranging from 20mm to 200mm in thickness using advanced Italian multi-wire saws and gangsaw machinery.

Finishing

Granite slabs are polished using state-of-the-art technology for a high-gloss finish or treated to achieve textures such as sandblasted, flamed, antique, or honed.

Bridge saws are used to precisely cut granite to custom specifications, ideal for large-scale developments and specialized project requirements.
