Granite
New Halayeb is the stone buyers ask for by name more than any other in this part of the catalogue, and the reason is legible the moment you see a slab: a bright, near-white to soft grey ground carrying an even scatter of darker mineral. It gives a room the lightness of a white marble without the pattern a marble brings.
Because the speckle is fine and evenly spread, it tiles well. Large floors and long elevations hold together without a vein to match or a direction to keep, which is what makes it a practical choice at scale — cladding, lobby floors, stair treads, counters and vanities.
Polished, the ground brightens and the flecks sharpen. Honed and brushed keep it quiet. Flamed and bush hammered take it to a matte, grippy face for outdoor use.
Supplied as blocks, slabs and cut to size.
