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.

Cut to Size

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

Prepared

The granite products are quality checked and then carefully wrapped and secured with various protective materials to ensure a secure delivery.
