Natural Quartzite
Quartzite is a natural stone consisting of 90-99% quartz grains bound together with silica, the stone is formed underneath the surface of the earth where sandstone rich in quartz is reformed under high heat and pressure. Quartzite stone has a granular sugar-like texture and quartz-rich sandstone elicits an earthier feel and granular in appearance. Quartzite is a medium grain with interlocking quartz. This natural stone surface is a metamorphosed sandstone. The composition is dominated by quartz, but originally the sandstone contains some clay minerals and other minerals such as feldspar, fragments of rock that invade the stone in the form of impurities.
Versatile in application, quartzites can be utilised for walls, floors, stairs, countertops, and roofing, offering a seamless integration of elegance and functionality. Available in various thicknesses, including 20mm and 30mm, and finishes such as polished and matte, quartzites cater to diverse design preferences, allowing for customisation to suit individual aesthetic visions.
