Granite Transformations, an international remodeling services company, announces the debut of its new earth-tone inspired color collection, Terra. Italian for Earth, Terra brings the brown tones of the soil, the gold shimmers of a tree trunk and the gentle tones of porcelain to the Granite Transformations line up of quality stone products. Porcelain, a new product component for Granite Transformations, is smooth to the touch but also one of the hardest materials, making the collection both durable and beautiful for kitchens and bathrooms.

“Granite Transformations prides itself on providing stylish, quality and environmentally-friendly products, and the Terra collection not only captures these attributes, but also introduces a new material, porcelain, giving it a refined and welcoming feel,” explains Carl Griffenkranz, vice president of marketing and franchise development for Granite Transformations. “We were approached by a major manufacturer of porcelain products about the possibility of incorporating remnant porcelain into our existing product line. Considering we are on the forefront of utilizing natural materials to design stronger, more durable granite and glass products, this was a natural progression for Granite Transformations.”

Granite Transformations countertop products are unique and feature a one-fourth inch slab of engineered stone or post-consumer recycled glass, manufactured to be both beautiful and highly durable, as well as scratch, stain and heat resistance. This thinner material can be installed directly on top of existing surfaces without any demolition, eliminating weeks of disturbance and inconvenience. Granite Transformations is used by homeowners, commercial and domestic interior designers, architects, builders and developers worldwide and installation typically can be completed in one to three days.
