Our Pedrini granite tile factory was established in the very early 1980s and was the first in India to achieve successful, quantity granite tile production.

All our granite tiles are produced using water as a cutting medium. To understand the significance of this compared to kerosene cutting, please check our Quality page. On the quality page you will also be able to learn about the difference between First Choice and Commercial Quality and also the mysterious and mythical Triple AAA grade stone standard created and promoted by various sellers of granite tiles.

Standard sizes available are:

• 305 x 305 x 10 mm (12" x 12" x 3/8")
• 610 x 305 x 10 mm (24" x 12" x 3/8")
• 400 x 400 x 10 mm (15 3/4" x 15 3/4" x 3/8")
• 457 x 457 x 10/12 mm (18" x 18" x 3/8~1/2")
• 305/400/457 mm x Freelength For You To Cut To Length On Site

It is important to emphasise that granite tiles of 610 x 610 x 15/18 mm (24" x 24" x 5/8") are very costly to produce and also have a significant production failure loss therefore if you require granite tiles to this dimension we would recommend using 20 mm (3/4") thickness produced traditionally from large slabs. These granite tiles can be produced to a very fine calibration tolerance.

This is a reflective, mirror-like surface finish and is considered to be the best in regards to scratch and stain factors. This finish emphasises the colours and natural stone markings and veins.

A non-reflective, smooth, low sheen, matte finish. The production process is identical to creating a polished finish except for the final polishing stages offering a softer look however it does make the surface more susceptible to scratching and staining.

The granite surface is treated with wire rotary brushes making a smooth, slightly undulating, soft, suede-like finish. It is a low-maintenance finish however to control surface staining it should be treated with a good-quality stone sealer.

This process was developed in-house several years ago. The granite is first sandblasted and then treated with special abrasives to create a non-reflective, slightly textured but smooth surface which brings out the natural beauty and colour of the granite. This is a harder-wearing surface than either honed or leather finishes.

Quite literally the granite surface is treated with extreme heat either by an automatic or manual flaming machine. Owing to the necessary high temperatures required, we do not recommend a a granite thickness of less than 20 mm. The granite surface created is a rough, deeply textured surface.

Using coarse, rotary brushes, the flamed granite is then brushed removing some of the rough surface leaving a textured yet smooth, slightly rippled surface.
