Marini Marmi NUVOLATO DI GRÉ Indoor/outdoor natural stone wall/floor tiles

Nuvolato di Gré is a natural stone belonging to the family of dolomitic breccias, extracted in the Gré area within the municipalities of Castro and Solto Collina, in the province of Bergamo, Italy.‎ The material is characterised by a very fine grain, a compact structure and a veined, brecciated texture.‎ Its colour is predominantly grey, with shades ranging from lighter to darker tones.‎ The surface may feature white calcite veins, whose natural distribution makes every slab different.‎ The geological formation of Nuvolato di Gré dates back to the Upper Triassic, specifically the Norian age, approximately 228 to 209 million years ago.‎ The material forms the geological base of Ceppo di Gré and is therefore also referred to as its “mother stone”.‎ Nuvolato di Gré is suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications.‎ Its compact structure and the range of available surface finishes allow it to be used for flooring, cladding, staircases, furniture elements and interior design applications.‎ The material is quarried underground and processed directly by Marini Marmi, which manages the different stages of production internally, from block selection to the manufacture of slabs and custom-made elements.‎ Technical characteristics: Petrographic classification Dolomitic breccia.‎ Geological age Upper Triassic, Norian age, approximately 228 to 209 million years ago.‎ Quarrying site Gré, Castro and Solto Collina, Bergamo, Italy.‎ Composition and structure Compact, veined, very fine-grained sedimentary dolomitic carbonate lithotype with a brecciated texture.‎ Colour Grey, with lighter and darker shades and white calcite veins.‎ Use Indoor and outdoor.‎ Main applications Flooring, cladding, staircases, furniture elements and interior design applications.‎ Main properties Resistance to foot traffic, weathering and acids.‎ Available finishes: Honed 220 A finish suitable for indoor and outdoor flooring and cladding.‎ The treatment gives the material a smooth, matt surface.‎ Minimum thickness: 2 cm  Application: face and edges  Surfaces: flat or shaped Polished A traditional finish recommended for indoor flooring and cladding.‎ The treatment gives the material a bright, uniform and reflective surface.‎ Minimum thickness: 2 cm  Application: face and edges  Surfaces: flat or shaped Sandblasted A finish suitable for indoor and outdoor flooring and cladding.‎ The treatment creates a rough surface with slip-resistant properties.‎ Minimum thickness: 2 cm  Application: face and edges  Surfaces: flat or shaped Brushed A finish suitable for indoor flooring and cladding.‎ The treatment highlights the natural structure of the stone and gives the surface a soft, lightly textured appearance.‎ Minimum thickness: 2 cm  Application: face and edges  Surfaces: flat or shaped Further info from manufacturer on NUVOLATO DI GRÉ Marini Marmi
