Key Product Specifications

Aesthetic Profile: The Power of Charcoal

Sesame Black Granite is a cornerstone of the “Greyscale Spectrum”. Often compared to Raven Grey or Midnight Charcoal, it offers a consistent, fine-grained “salt and pepper” appearance.

In a Flamed finish, the stone appears as a stunning deep charcoal; however, when sealed or wet, it transitions into a rich jet-black. This makes it an ideal choice for high-contrast designs, looking incredibly striking when paired with green gardens, white rendered walls, or timber decking.

The Exfoliated Advantage: P5 Safety & Salt Resistance

The “Exfoliated” or Flamed finish is achieved by exposing the granite surface to a high-temperature flame, causing the surface crystals to burst and create a rough, slip-resistant texture.

• Safety: With a P5 Slip Rating, these tiles meet the highest Australian safety standards (AS 4586), making them non-negotiable for sloped driveways, public walkways, and pool surrounds.
• Pool Compliance: Our Sesame Black Granite is AA Salt-Safe. It will not “sugar” or erode when exposed to saltwater pool systems, ensuring your investment remains structurally sound for decades.

Project Applications: From Bayside Pools to Toorak Driveways

The 20mm thickness is the “sweet spot” for Melbourne residential projects. It is thick enough to provide superior load-bearing capacity while remaining light enough for efficient installation on concrete slabs.

• Pool Surrounds: The charcoal tone stays remarkably cool compared to darker basalt, while the texture ensures safety for children and the elderly.
• Driveways: When laid on a reinforced concrete slab with the correct adhesive, Sesame Black Granite is tough enough to handle passenger vehicle traffic without cracking or staining from oil.
• Stepping Stones: Use these tiles to create modern, geometric garden paths surrounded by pebbles or groundcover.
