Solarium – yellow granite of natural origin

Solarium is an exotic, warm, and majestic natural granite/pegmatite mined in the renowned mining basins of the state of Espírito Santo, Brazil. It is a stone highly appreciated in high-end interior and exterior design for the extraordinary liveliness of its golden tones and the intrinsic robustness of its siliceous matrix.

Visually, it is distinguished by a warm and sunny background in shades of golden yellow, honey, ochre and amber, crossed by fluid and imposing veins or clouds in shades of cream, hazel brown, rust and quartz grey. The presence of large feldspar and quartz crystals gives the surfaces an extraordinary natural dynamism, ideal for dramatic impact work.

Technical characteristics of Solarium

Geologically it is an intrusive magmatic rock (granite/silicate). Being a predominantly siliceous matrix material, it is an acid-fast material and is NOT sensitive to food and chemical acids (such as lemon, vinegar, wine, or household cleaners). It boasts high surface hardness, strong resistance to mechanical abrasion, scratches and thermal overhang. It responds excellently to mirror polishing, as well as to woven processes such as brushing (leather effect) or flaming for external use.

Applications in design

– countertops and countertops: application of choice: its total inertia to acids and resistance to stains and heat make it ideal for kitchen tops, islands and counters for intensive use.

– open-spot compositions: the richness and direction of its veins allow for the creation of scenic mirrored vertical walls with high decorative value.

– high-traffic flooring and siding: perfect for indoor and outdoor floors, state entrances, hotel lobbies, and areas prone to heavy traffic.

– bathroom and wellness rooms: an excellent choice for vanity tops, shower trays, and walls, thanks to their ease of cleaning and resistance to anti-limescale or cleaning products.

– exterior architecture: ideal for ventilated facades, pool edges, terraces, thresholds and windowsills exposed to the elements and frost.
