About Giallo SF Real
Giallo SF Real stands for exactly the kind of yellow granite that has worked in practice for years: friendly, robust and versatile to combine. The colour lies between yellow, beige and slightly golden inclusions, joined by a clearly legible granite grain with darker contrasts. The material brings warmth into kitchens and entrance areas without appearing ornamental or overloaded. Compared with very homogeneous engineered quartz, the natural stone character remains visible; compared with heavily patterned exotics, the image remains controllable.
The stone comes from Brazil, more precisely from the Barra de São Francisco area, one of the most important regions for the international hard stone trade. Brazilian granites of this kind have been used for kitchen worktops, window sills, stairs and façades for decades, because they are visually broadly applicable and technically hard-wearing. For planners that is an advantage: the material works in private kitchens just as well as in more heavily frequented interior areas or selected external applications.
Technically, Giallo SF Real moves within the dependable granite range. Bulk density is, depending on the data set, around 2,572 to 2,580 kg/m³, compressive strength around 139.3 MPa and flexural strength 6.87 MPa. To this comes water absorption of about 0.37 %. These are practical values for worktops, floor areas, stairs and window sills. The combination of hardness and low water absorption in particular makes the stone considerably less sensitive to everyday kitchen use and weathering than acid-sensitive marbles.
The surface finishes available from stock are listed in the »Finishes« block further down. Brushed variants lie visually between matt and textured and go well with modern kitchens or stairwells. At ROSSITTIS, Giallo SF Real is available as a raw slab, in tiles, as tread and riser, window sill, skirting and as a kitchen worktop.
The honest assessment: Giallo SF Real is not a spectacular show stone, but a distinctly usable, warm working granite. That is precisely what makes it strong. Anyone looking for decorative exoticism will end up rather with Brazilian movement stones. Anyone looking for a yellow granite for a long-lasting project with a calm presence gets a very sensible solution here.

Technical data
Guide values for the stone type, taken from manufacturer and test reports. Natural stone is a natural product — individual batches and slabs can differ. For critical applications, request slab-specific test data.
Giallo SF Real is available in a range of finishes. The finish affects appearance, feel and the care it needs.
Poliert
Politur ist die klassischste Veredelung im Hartgesteinsegment — eine spiegelglatte, hochglänzende Oberfläche mit höchstmöglicher Farbintensität und maximaler Tiefenwirkung der Mineralstruktur. Als säurebeständiges Silikatgestein ist polierter Granit pflegeleicht und für Küchenarbeitsplatten, Wandverkleidungen und repräsentative Sichtflächen erste Wahl.
Care & fabrication
Giallo SF Real should be sealed after fitting or installation so that greases, oils and coloured liquids penetrate the surface less easily. For kitchens and heavily used floors this makes sense despite the robust rock type.
For cleaning and care, pH-neutral natural stone cleaners, clear water and soft microfibre cloths are recommended. Crumbs, dust and limescale residues should be removed regularly so that the surface stays permanently clean and calm.
Avoid aggressive descalers, strongly alkaline deep cleaners and abrasive pads. Even a hard-wearing granite is easier to clean and care for if the surface is not attacked by unnecessarily harsh agents.
For external surfaces the rule is: clean and care for them regularly, remove organic deposits early and refresh the sealer at suitable intervals. The surface finishes available from stock are listed in the »Finishes« block further down.
Frequently asked questions
Is Giallo SF Real suitable as a worktop?
Yes. With a bulk density of about 2,572 to 2,580 kg/m³, compressive strength of around 139.3 MPa and water absorption of 0.37 %, Giallo SF Real is well suited to kitchen worktops and counters.
Which surfaces make sense for Giallo SF Real?
The surface finishes available from stock are listed in the »Finishes« block on this page.
Where is Giallo SF Real quarried?
The stone comes from Brazil, from the Barra de São Francisco area. The region is one of the most important source areas for exported granites.
How do I care for Giallo SF Real day to day?
pH-neutral natural stone cleaners, water and a microfibre cloth are sufficient for cleaning and care. Grease, oil and strongly coloured liquids should nevertheless not be left lying on worktops for long.
Can Giallo SF Real be used outdoors?
Yes, in principle it can. The low water absorption and the robust granite structure speak for external applications, provided the surface, installation and drainage are properly planned.
Giallo SF Real or Bianco Sardo?
Giallo SF Real brings more warmth and a yellow-beige character, while Bianco Sardo appears cooler and more grey-white. Technically both are versatile as robust granites.
