Granite is one of emerging industries of India. According to estimate India has over 197 billion tons of granite reserves and more than 100 types of colours and varieties of granites are available in India.
Because of its uniform texture and hardness, Granite is preferred for external use. Granite does not need re-polishing once it is polished. The Granular formation and compactness of Granite make it non-porous and non absorbent hence more hygienic for the use in kitchen, washrooms and other water exposed areas.
Availability of high quality granite reserves in India in great quantities and the demand of its products in the export market in European Union countries , Asian countries etc make this sector highly attractive.
