Cast Granite - Advice

karlitob

Hi all

Don’t like the ubiquitous silver granite.
I like the yellow granite (G682) but it is very yellow when compared to the colours we have on the house - just doesn’t suit.
I came across cast granite - it’s quite nice actually.

Can anyone advise on pros / cons of cast granite rather than granite?

Many thanks all.

The British standard they quote says
This European Standard specifies materials, properties, requirements and test methods for unreinforced, cement bound precast concrete kerb units, channels and complementary fittings, that are for use in trafficked paved areas and roof coverings.

so maybe they are cement bound and then sand blasted for the look, its using granite aggregate
