Brown Suede - natural brown granite

Technical characteristics of the Brown Suede

Geologically, it is an authentic granite of intrusive magmatic origin. Its predominantly silicate composition gives it excellent mechanical properties, placing it at the top for hardness and resistance to scratches, abrasions and impacts. Thanks to virtually zero natural porosity, it has a very low absorption coefficient that repels liquids, protecting the surface from oil, wine or coffee stains. It is also chemically inert and totally immune to corrosion by food acids such as lemon or vinegar. This material expresses its maximum potential with the brushed or satin finish: this workmanship extinguishes its shiny reflections giving it a matte, velvety and incredibly pleasant texture to the touch, very similar to leather.

Applications in design

Perfect for:

– kitchen and island tops: one of the main applications; the brushed finish is particularly popular because, in addition to being indestructible and heat-resistant, it perfectly masks your fingers and everyday use.

– bathroom and wellness decor: ideal for vanity tops, flush-floored shower trays, and upholstery, where dark, matte earth tones recreate an enveloping spa atmosphere.

– flooring and stairs: totally resistant to frost and wear, it is used in large formats to create visual continuity between the internal halls and external patios of modern villas.

– tables and complements: highly sought after for dining table tops or fireplace surrounds, where its textured surface dialogues beautifully with natural wood or hot metals such as bronze and brass.
