Zimbabwe Black Granite Material Description

Zimbabwe Black is a black granite material that comes in a aged & polished texture. It is supplied to Polish Granite by Levantina company specialising in stone slab production.

Why Zimbabwe Black is the perfect material for stone kitchen worktops?

Sturdiness, longevity and incredible heat resistance define granite worktops. Granite is a natural, volcanic rock full of compressed, melted and cooled down minerals that imbue this material with the renowned toughness. This is predominantly why granite is utilised for kitchen worktops, where cooking is constant and a threat of potential damage always looming.

With black Zimbabwe Black granite kitchen worktops, you won’t have to worry about scratches or indents – even the sharpest knives cannot impact the integrity of granite. The same applies for intense heat. Granite can withstand even the highest temperatures, so the worktop can easily work as a stand for that boiling pot of soup or the red-hot oven dish, with no damage inflicted.

If regularly impregnated, the small grained Zimbabwe Black granite worktops also become water resistant. That means they will never warp, unlike wood or laminate worktops, nor stain or discolour. In almost every way, kitchen granite worktops are superior surfaces that aren’t only beautiful (as the sample above signifies), but are also functional tools that provide aid in the everyday kitchen life. Polish Granite are here to customise and adapt your natural stone into virtually any project. The possibilities for granite uses are infinite – this applies both to indoor and outdoor designs.

What thicknesses are available for Zimbabwe Black?

The slabs of Zimbabwe Black by Levantina are available in 20mm or 30mm thicknesses. This stone material depth is ideal for multiple applications. From big projects like kitchen worktops, paving, flooring & wall cladding to smaller installations of coffee tabletops, dining tables or windowsills. Surfaces of this depth are manufactured in bespoke fashion, tailor-made to complete even the most demanding projects.

What makes Zimbabwe Black so unique?

Product colour description:

Black materials, like Zimbabwe Black by Levantina above, are extremely popular in the quartz and granite worktops industry. Primarily because this is a universal colour. Black brilliantly contrasts white & green cabinets or grey floors. It is a colour that emboldens your kitchen and manifests the strength inherent to this stone product. Black resembles depth, a crevice, a black hole. It’s a deceptive colour that seems plain, drab and intimidating in our minds, but when applied to a piece of furniture it inspires a sense of awe and wonder.

Material structure & composition:

Small grains, a feature of this Zimbabwe Black worktop product, add a stoney, rough effect to the smooth surface. It’s a fantastic way to pick a generally plain-coloured product without it appearing lifeless or lacking dimension. Our fine-grained materials are very popular due to their universality. Whether it’s your bathroom, kitchen, utility room or stairwell, this product may be applied to any home setting. Furthermore it masks signs of grime, mud or muck – perfect for those patio floors!

Material recommended for:

  • Stairs & step cladding,
  • Bathroom worktops & vanity tops,
  • Utility room tops.

What textures/finishes is this product supplied in?

The ‘aged’ finish of this black Zimbabwe Black granite emulates the wrinkled coarseness of a natural rock, exposed over millennia to wind, rain, sand and snow. It is smooth still, as though lightly polished, but deprived of that iconic glossy look. This furrowed, slightly uneven surface is a hallmark of all natural rocks. Likewise, when integrated within the interior (either in form of a worktop or flooring), this product graces the room with an unprocessed, gritty ambience, native to British mountain ranges.

The black Zimbabwe Black by Levantina can be supplied in a ‘polished’ texture. This means a scintillating gloss that beautifully reflects the light and highlights the true colours & pigments embedded within the product. The polished texture is one of the most popular surface finishes, mostly present among quartz worktops and granite worktops, although ceramic suppliers also adopt this finish for their stone slabs. These surfaces are easy to clean and prevent all liquid absorption.
