"R U OK? DAY": Tomorrow, September 12th, marks the very day.


Generally when we greet people it starts with "Hello, how are you?", but do you actually listen to that person's response?

The 'R U OK? Foundation', has set-up an "R U OK?Day" national campaign to help gauge other people's feelings and support those who may be struggling with their life. It is also a day to remind yourself about how you feel and whether you need support?

Tomorrow marks the very day. It's about re-enforcing the idea to ask those around you about whether they "are ok" and for you to listen out for a meaningful response, as to how they are really feeling. Whether it be your friends, family or colleagues, give it a go and make a difference. At Granite Planet, we will.

The foundation is there "to help create a world where all people connect...". For more information please see here:

Stone News: Introducing elegance from Silestone®...


Introducing the new suede sensual finish brought to you by Silestone®, into the Australian market.

Silsestone® have brought an advanced matte texture stone finish that is available for workspace surfaces and tiling. For example, in the kitchen.

This range is designed to combat stains, promote colour consistency, provide a soft texture, allow for easy maintenance and ensure maximum hygiene (ie as it contains a bacteriostatic property).

What is currently available?


The initial colour selection for Australian consumers consists of Cemento Spa, Blanco Capri, Amazon, Blanco Zeus, Tigris Sand, Lagoon and Lyra.

The stone is man-made and is composed of natural quartz materials. 

What excites Granite Planet about this range?

1. With the recent introduction of concrete benchtops in the home (kitchen), the "Cemento Spa" is an alternative option to use in your home for a concrete/cement like appearance and texture.

2. There are light stone options that look like natural stone, which possess the properties of reconstituted stone, with the added benefit of reflecting strength and a natural look. Ideal for use in high traffic areas.
