Namibia Green – green granite of natural origin

Namibia Green is a fascinating, compact and exotic natural green granite quarried from the rich and ancient stone basins of Namibia (in southern Africa). Recognized in contemporary high-end architecture for its understated chromatic elegance, structural stability, and resistance to stress, it represents a silicate ornamental stone of remarkable versatility and aesthetic impact.

Visually, it is distinguished by an enveloping and fluid background matrix in shades of olive green, pine green and sage green, capillarily enriched by a fine crystalline grain with veins, flares and shading in shades of quartz grey, dark hunter green, ivory, cream and subtle amber-rusty shades.

Technical characteristics of Namibia Green

Geologically it is an intrusive/metamorphic magmatic rock with a predominantly silicate composition (rich in quartz, feldspars, micas and epidote/chlorite, responsible for the dominant green chromatic composition). As a strictly silicate matrix material with no carbonate components, it does not react to food or household chemical acids (such as lemon, vinegar, wine, juices or common detergents) and is not subject to acid attack opacification. It has a very high hardness (Mohs scale 6–7), excellent resistance to abrasion, scratches, intense trampling, frost (total frostiness) and thermal changes, with an extremely low water absorption rate.

Applications in design

– scenic kitchen tops and countertops: an excellent choice for impact islands, kitchen tops, and bar counters thanks to their complete immunity to food acids, heat, and accidental scratches.

– high-traffic flooring and cladding: ideal for indoor and outdoor floors, commercial lobbies, hotel suites, stairways, and ventilated facades thanks to maximum mechanical stability and atmospheric unalterability.

– bookmatch compositions: the veined and flamed movement lends itself magnificently to the mirrored pose for the creation of designer wall wings and high plastic value.

– bathroom and SPA rooms: widely used for vanity tops, wall coverings, shower trays and wellness areas, where pine and olive green tones infuse a serene and rejuvenating atmosphere.
