Imperial Maritaca Green – green granite of natural origin

Verde Maritaca Imperiale is a selection of absolute excellence and high range extracted in the renowned stone deposits of Brazil. Compared to its classic counterpart, this “Imperial” variety stands out in luxury interior design for its decidedly more dynamic, fluid and scenographic design, combined with the same extraordinary mechanical performance of Brazilian silicate granites.

Visually, it presents itself with an intense and enveloping background matrix in shades of dark emerald, forest and deep olive, moved and embellished with elegant flamings, fluid veins and crystalline inclusions in shades of apple green, silver-grey, quartz white and warm bronze-gold reflections.

Technical characteristics of Imperial Maritaca Green

Geologically, it is classified as a magmatic/metamorphic silicate rock (migmatite/granitoid gneiss with a very high content of quartz, plagioclase and feldspars, whose rich green colour palette is conferred by micro-inclusions of epidote, chlorite and hornblende). Being a material with a strictly silicate composition and immune to carbonate components, it does not react to food or household chemical acids (such as lemon, vinegar, wine, juices or anti-limescale detergents) and is not subject to opacification or acid corrosion. It boasts a very high hardness (Mohs scale 6–6.5), exceptional resistance to abrasion, scratches, heavy trampling, frost and temperature changes, combined with an extremely low water absorption rate.

Applications in design

– designer kitchen tops and islands for heavy use: an excellent choice for kitchen tops, islands, and bar counters thanks to their absolute immunity to food acids, scratches, and direct heat.

– bookmatch compositions: the flaming and sinuous movement of the veins allow for the creation of accent walls, scenic backdrops and artistically impactful coverings.

– high-traffic flooring and siding: Perfect for premium commercial and residential flooring, hotel lobbies, executive spaces, and ventilated facades subject to heavy wear and weather.

– bathroom, SPA and vanity top environments: widely used for vanity tops, shower trays and walls for wellness areas, providing an elegant, relaxing and enveloping atmosphere.
