Ramadi El Sherka granite characteristics

Ramadi El Sherka granite is a medium-grey stone with a uniform, fine-to-medium grain of grey, black and white minerals. The Arabic word “ramadi” means grey, and this granite delivers exactly that: a balanced, neutral grey without strong veining or dramatic movement. Its consistency is its greatest strength, allowing large surfaces, paving runs and cladding panels to be installed with very little colour variation, which is why it is a go-to choice for both commercial developments and public infrastructure.

Properties and finishes of Ramadi El Sherka granite

Ramadi El Sherka is a true Egyptian granite rating around 6-7 on the Mohs hardness scale, giving it strong resistance to scratching, abrasion and heavy load. It has low water absorption, excellent frost and weather resistance and high compressive strength, making it especially well suited to demanding exterior and structural applications.

A polished finish deepens the grey tone and reveals the fine crystalline grain, while a honed finish provides a smooth, matte surface. A flamed finish lightens the grey and creates a rugged, slip-resistant texture ideal for paving and stairs. Ramadi El Sherka is part of the wider Egyptian granite range we quarry and finish in-house.

Where to use Ramadi El Sherka granite

Exterior paving and pavements

The strength and uniform grey of Ramadi El Sherka make it a leading choice for kerbs, pavements, public squares and driveway paving, where flamed slabs offer durable, slip-resistant surfaces.

Facades and cladding

Its weather resistance and consistent colour suit ventilated facades and building cladding on large commercial and residential projects.

Flooring and countertops

Polished or honed tiles create hard-wearing grey floors for lobbies and high-traffic areas, and the neutral tone also works well for countertops and stair treads.
