What does Juparana Grey Granite tread look like?
Juparana Grey Granite features a grey base animated by delicate, flowing grain patterns, meaning no two treads look exactly alike. This natural variation gives each staircase genuine character rather than a uniform, manufactured appearance.
Since each Juparana Grey Granite tread looks different, can Reidstone keep a staircase visually cohesive?
Yes. While individual grain patterns vary naturally, the overall grey tone and flow style stay consistent across an order, and we can lay out treads by visual balance before shipping on request. This keeps a full staircase run cohesive while still showing genuine natural variation.
How durable is Juparana Grey Granite for stair treads?
Juparana Grey Granite has a compressive strength of 180–210 MPa and low water absorption of 0.2–0.4%, giving it solid durability and frost resistance for both interior and exterior staircases. It performs reliably across seasons without significant wear.
What finish is recommended for Juparana Grey Granite stair treads?
Flamed is the standard recommendation for stair treads, providing reliable slip resistance in wet conditions. Polished, honed, and bush-hammered finishes are also available for entryways, patios, or interior applications with different traction requirements.
Is Juparana Grey Granite suitable for exterior applications?
Yes. Juparana Grey Granite is frost-resistant and weather-resilient, making it a strong option for exterior staircases, garden steps, entryways, and patios, in addition to interior applications where its natural grain pattern is especially prized.
