What’s The Difference Between Granite, Marble, and Porcelain?
Each of the three different natural stones we work with has different properties that make them more or less suitable for different situations. However, in many cases, it is personal preference and design choice that are the key decider.
Granite is a highly durable stone that is hard-wearing, scratch resistant and heat resistant. It comes in a variety of colours and patterns, including whites, blacks, reds, browns, and yellows, and is normally highly polished. Each slab is unique with specks, flecks, and veins, ensuring that your benchtop or other feature is unique.
Marble is a beautiful natural stone that can be used either polished or unpolished. Colour choices are more limited than in granite, but its elegance and luxury make it highly sought after. Marble is softer and less durable than granite and more likely to scratch or become stained. Busy areas, such as at sinks, may become worn, get scratched, and start to look a bit dull, but for some, this is part of marble’s charm. Choosing a darker stone and using a protective sealer can help hide marks and protect against staining.
Porcelain isn’t actually a natural stone – it’s a ceramic made from heating clay. It’s the ideal material for any hard-wearing situation. It’s heat and fire resistant, scratch resistant, and stain resistant. Because of this its extremely long-lasting and durable and is even suitable for outside use. Porcelain is a great choice if you want a finish that still looks like new a decade after it’s been installed.
