Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is New Imperial Red Granite and where does it originate?
New Imperial Red Granite is quarried in the Ilkal region of Karnataka, India, and features a deep red background with speckled patterns of black, grey, and light cream minerals. This igneous rock is formed from cooled magma and is classified as coarse to very coarse-grained granite, known for its bold, vibrant appearance.
Q2: Is New Imperial Red Granite suitable for kitchen countertops?
Yes, New Imperial Red Granite is highly recommended for kitchen countertops. It features a deep red color with black and gray flecks, creating a striking and elegant look, with natural durability and heat-resistant properties suitable for kitchen environments. Its exceptional hardness makes it resistant to scratches and daily wear in busy kitchens.
Q3: How often does New Imperial Red Granite need to be sealed?
Applying a sealant once a year is recommended to enhance durability and stain resistance. However, sealing frequency depends on usage—high-traffic areas may require more frequent sealing. You can perform a simple water test by placing drops of water on the surface; if it darkens or absorbs within 15-20 minutes, it’s time to reseal.
Q4. What cleaning products should I use on New Imperial Red Granite?
Clean with mild soap and water to retain its natural beauty. Avoid acidic cleaners like vinegar, lemon juice, or harsh chemicals such as bleach and ammonia, as these can damage the sealant and dull the stone’s finish. Always wipe spills immediately, especially oils and colored liquids, to prevent potential staining.

New Imperial Red Granite is ideal for both indoor and outdoor applications, including outdoor kitchens, paving, monuments, and landscaping. The stone is scratch resistant, weather resistant and sanitary, making it capable of withstanding temperature fluctuations and weathering over time.
Q6: Will each slab of New Imperial Red Granite look identical?
There are different shades available in the market, ranging from light pink to dark red, depending on the quarry location and depth from which it is extracted. As a natural stone, each slab has unique variations in color intensity and mineral patterns. It’s essential to view and select your specific slab in person to ensure it matches your design vision.
Q7: What finishes are available for New Imperial Red Granite?
New Imperial Red Granite is available in multiple finishes including polished, honed, flamed, brushed, leathered, and bush-hammered.

Honed provides a matte appearance, while flamed offers a textured, slip-resistant surface ideal for outdoor applications.
