Absolute Black Granite Tiles

Crystalline igneous stone that shrugs off scratches, heat and acids. The world's go-to for countertops, stairs, paving and cladding.

Before you buy

• Ask for the variety's water absorption test. Some light and exotic granites are porous and need sealing.
• Inspect slabs under raking light for resin-filled pits, cracks and shade variation.
• Check slab size (for example 3.2 × 1.9 m jumbo) fits your largest island without a seam.
