Gravestones and tombstones are products that are installed to commemorate and honor deceased loved ones. This stone has different types, each of which has its own characteristics.
Types of rocks that can be made for the tomb:
Due to the working of gravestones in open environments, not all stones can be used for this purpose. Tombstones must have a very high resistance against atmospheric conditions, cold and heat, direct sunlight, acid rain, impact and erosion, etc. so that they do not get damaged after a while. In the list below, four of the best types of stones used for tombstones are mentioned, each of the following categories includes a variety of designs and prices. In the list below, the most used stones are mentioned in order from top to bottom.
Granite stones are among the highest quality and hardest natural stones available. One of the prominent features of granite is its high resistance to cold and heat, frost, zero water absorption, and scratch resistance. Granite stones are resistant to harsh weather conditions and their quality does not decrease with the passage of time. Among the most widely used granite stones as tombs are Natanz black granite, Shabg granite, Simin granite and Toisarkan granite.
These products are domestic, and the foreign example of black granite stone is Brazil, which is used as the most widely used imported tombstone. Granite is the most widely used stone for gravestones, which has the major market share for graves. The types of granites are somewhat similar, but they have significant differences in appearance.
White nano -stone:
Nano and artificial stones are formed by combining natural stones with white cement and other additives. These stones are uniform and no streaks or grain can be seen in these products. There are two types of nano stone for tombs in the market, which are Iranian and foreign nano. Nano porcelain is imported and Iranian nano stone is domestically produced. Nano stones have a higher relative resistance than natural stones and the erosion of these products takes more time.
