- Water Absorption:
- 0.12 %
- Density:
- 2674 Kg/m3
- Flexural Strength:
- 12.3 MPa
- Compressive Strength:
- 90.1 MPa
- Stone texture:
- an expressive and naturally artistic stone featuring a light beige, off-white, to pale gray base that provides a soft and neutral foundation. Its appearance is distinguished by irregular, swirling veins and patch-like formations in shades of brown, tan, gray, and black, creating a dynamic composition reminiscent of natural brushstrokes, tree bark, or organic geological patterns. Some slabs display stronger, high-contrast veining in charcoal or near-black tones that stand out dramatically against the light background, while others feature softer brown and tan blush effects that add warmth and subtle variation. The texture is medium to coarse-grained and crystalline, composed of interlocking quartz, feldspar, and mica minerals, forming a dense and durable granite structure. Unlike uniform speckled granites, Blanco Gazon exhibits a flowing, fluid-like visual movement, giving the stone an artistic, almost animated quality while maintaining excellent strength, hardness, and resistance suitable for a wide range of architectural applications
