Azul Kifa Granite Texture Series

SKU: PGF005

The Azul Kifa Granite Texture Series (SKU: PGF005) by Prastara offers a sophisticated granite finish for high-end UAE interiors. Engineered at our 33,000 sqm Jebel Ali facility, this series replicates the deep, crystalline aesthetics of natural stone without the structural weight of solid slabs. These granite effect wall tiles are manufactured to custom dimensions, making them ideal for seamless architectural integration. The surface provides a realistic natural stone look that resists fading and abrasion. Suitable for luxury feature walls, lift lobbies, and commercial reception areas, the series is typically applied to aluminum or steel substrates. Installation is streamlined via standard mechanical fixing or structural bonding, ensuring a durable finish that meets stringent GCC building standards for luxury developments.

Finish

The Azul Kifa series features a multi-tonal blue and grey crystalline texture that mimics natural igneous rock. Its matte-to-satin lustre provides exceptional depth and visual interest under directional architectural lighting.

Maintenance

Clean surfaces using a soft microfiber cloth and pH-neutral cleaners. Avoid abrasive pads or high-acid chemical agents that may dull the textured granite finish. For high-traffic commercial areas, periodic dusting is sufficient to maintain the vibrancy of the stone effect. The non-porous nature of the finish ensures it remains resistant to staining and moisture ingress in indoor environments.

Frequently asked questions

Can the Azul Kifa series be used for external granite cladding?
While the Azul Kifa Granite Texture Series is primarily optimized for our INDOOR range, IHGIND can adapt the coating technology for exterior applications upon request. For external granite cladding projects in the UAE and GCC, we utilize specialized weather-resistant topcoats that withstand extreme UV exposure and thermal expansion. We recommend consulting our technical team at the Jebel Ali facility to specify the correct substrate and finish grade to ensure long-term durability against the region's harsh environmental conditions.
What are the maximum dimensions available for these granite finish tiles?
Unlike natural stone which is limited by quarry slab sizes, our granite finish tiles in the UAE are manufactured as per requirement. We can produce large-format panels up to 3000mm in length depending on the chosen base substrate. This capability allows architects and designers to specify expansive, grout-free surfaces that maintain a consistent natural stone look across large elevations, significantly reducing installation complexity and structural load compared to traditional heavy masonry.
How does the weight of Prastara compare to real natural stone slabs?
The Prastara granite effect wall tile is significantly lighter than traditional 20mm or 30mm natural granite slabs. By applying a specialized granite texture to lightweight metal or composite substrates, we can reduce the dead load on the building structure by up to 70%. This makes it an ideal solution for retrofitting existing interiors, elevator cab interiors, or for use in high-rise developments where structural weight restrictions and logistics are critical project factors.
