How are granite kitchen worktops created?

The journey of granite from the earth to your kitchen worktop is quite a process. It starts deep underground, where it is carefully extracted using techniques like drilling and controlled blasts. These massive chunks of raw granite are then expertly sliced into more manageable blocks. These granite blocks are often around 3 meters long and 2 meters wide.

You can think of it like cutting a giant cake! These blocks are then further refined to get the right thickness for your kitchen. They are then sawed down into slimmer slabs, typically 20mm or 30mm thick. These thinner sections are then ready to travel and be transformed into those beautiful. As a result, you get custom granite worktops that you see in your homes.
