Bianco Sardo

Bianco Sardo is a granite quarried in Sardinia characterized by a light grey base color with scattered dark mineral flecks. The stone is extracted in large blocks and processed into slabs for construction and design applications.

Extraction of this granite began in the 20th century when Sardinia became a major stone-producing region. The industry grew in response to increasing demand for construction materials across Italy and the Mediterranean.

This granite represents a fundamental element in modern Italian architecture, appearing in numerous buildings across the Mediterranean region.

The stone blocks cut and split easily, allowing rapid processing into various formats for different projects. Visitors interested in the quarry operations should plan visits in advance and check with local operators about access and safety requirements.

The granite contains a blend of feldspar, quartz, and mica minerals that provide exceptional resistance to weathering and wear. This mineral composition makes it particularly durable against environmental exposure and daily stress.
