Choosing and sourcing granite for the Swiss trade
The right granite depends on appearance, location, finish and fabrication. This guide helps stone professionals compare the three Granivo materials and prepare the information needed for a project quotation in Switzerland.
Three materials with distinct appearances
Gran Perla has a pronounced black-and-white grain, Rosa Porriño a pink-grey appearance, and Crema Julia a lighter, warmer tone. Compare samples with the same finish: polished and flamed samples of one stone can look different.
Select the finish for the application
A polished finish may suit a glossy appearance; flamed or bush-hammered finishes can be considered for a more textured surface. Appearance alone does not establish suitability. For flooring, ask for the required test data and agree the choice with the project designer.
Coordinate fabrication and delivery
A useful enquiry includes a dimensioned list or drawing, quantity, delivery address and date. This makes it possible to consider the material, processing and transport together. Granivo is the Swiss contact; manufacturing and processing are handled by partner Granitos Cabaleiro.
Confirm the technical documents before ordering
Establish which documents the project requires. These may concern flexural strength, water absorption, frost resistance or slip resistance. Binding values must relate to the selected material, finish and use; they cannot be inferred from general statements about granite.
