Stone & Architecture
Egyptian granite, marble and decorative stone for flooring, wall cladding, vanity tops, terrazzo, monumental work and heritage restoration — Galala Cream, Sinai Pearl, Rosa Aswan, Sunny Yellow; EN 12058 / EN 1469 tested, inspection report per lot before B/L.
Stone & architecture
Granite, marble, decorative stone quarried in Egypt — Galala, Sinai pink, Triesta, New Halayeb, Aswan. Polished, honed, brushed and bush-hammered finishes available. Egypt Globe Group supplies Galala Cream, Sinai Pearl and Sunny Yellow marble, Rosa Aswan red granite and Crema Sahara limestone as blocks, slabs and calibrated tiles, with white Portland cement for terrazzo and GRC, to architects, fabricators and contractors worldwide.
Dimension stone is sold on a sample and delivered in containers months later; colour drift, hairline fissures or a slab batch below flexural strength cannot be corrected on site. The group's Quality Assurance division tests density, water absorption, compressive and flexural strength per lot to EN 12058 / EN 1469, grades every slab and crate against the approved sample, and issues the inspection report before the B/L — lots outside specification are rejected at the loading port, never re-graded.
