| Quartzite Tiles makes quite the contemporary statement. As one of the hardest natural stones available, quartzite is not only impressively durable but also boasts a velvety texture and a wide variety of colours, ranging from dark grey to warm copper, silver and white. Mineral elements locked within the stone give Quartzite its characteristic sheen while flecks of quartz add sparkle. |
|
| Available in a natural or honed finish, Quartzite is an excellent choice for walls or floors and is
particularly popular for outside areas. This product is suited for both interior and exterior floors and walls. Due to its excellent nonslip qualities, natural Quartzite is extremely popular for exterior applications especially around swimming pools and in areas which are exposed to wet conditions. |

| LEARN MORE ABOUT QUARTZITE |
| Quartzite is metamorphosed natural quartz sandstone and is found in association with other metamorphosed sedimentary rocks such as phyllite, schist and marble. When sandstone is subjected to heat and pressure, it turns into quartzite stone, which is an incredibly hard and dense material, a compact, granular rock composed of quartz crystals usually so firmly cemented as to make the mass homogeneous. The stone is generally quarried in stratified layers, the surfaces of which are unusually smooth. It's crushing and tensile strengths are extremely high and the color range is fairly wide. Like sandstone, their natural ability to split along foliations has made quartzite usable for wall cladding & roofing tiles. They are harder than sandstones. |
