Lumix Extra stands for an even lighter, calmer appearance within the Lumix family. The ground colour lies between white, ivory and a very light grey; the structure is crystalline but controlled. This makes the stone appear lighter and more selected than the standard Lumix and suits it well to projects in which as much brightness as possible is wanted.
The stone comes from Brazil and is traded as a quartzite. Unlike a light marble, Lumix Extra offers the robustness typical of quartzite together with a very elegant appearance. In kitchens in particular this combination is relevant, because light natural stone images are often associated only with marble, whose everyday performance is limited.
The technical characteristic values correspond to the material type: around 2,648 kg/m³ bulk density, about 0.076 % water absorption, approximately 74 MPa compressive strength and around 13.6 MPa flexural strength. The very low water absorption is particularly important for light worktops, because stains and moisture remain markedly easier to control.
The finishes currently available from stock are listed in the »Finishes« block further down this page. At ROSSITTIS, Lumix Extra is available as a raw slab, worktop, splashback, tile, window sill and wall cladding. Compared with the standard Lumix it appears more selected and lighter, compared with marble markedly more robust.
The frank assessment: Lumix Extra is the right choice if you are looking for maximum brightness within the quartzite segment. Anyone who wants more warmth or deliberately more movement should turn instead to cream-coloured quartzites.

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.
Lumix Extra is available in a range of finishes. The finish affects appearance, feel and the care it needs.
Polishing is the most classic finish for quartzite — a glossy surface with the highest possible colour intensity and a pronounced sense of depth. Depending on the mineral composition, the effect can be satin-gloss in places. As a silicate rock it is fully acid-resistant and scratch-hard — ideal for kitchen worktops and feature surfaces.
Lumix Extra too should be well sealed in kitchens and wet rooms. For cleaning and care, neutral natural stone cleaners, water and a soft cloth are suitable. On the very light surface, coffee, oil, limescale and metal abrasion should be removed promptly. Avoid strong scouring pads and pay attention to clean edge fabrication.
Yes. At around 0.076 % water absorption, Lumix Extra is very well suited to high-quality light worktops.

Lumix Extra comes from Brazil and is traded as a light quartzite.
For cleaning and care, a professional sealing treatment, neutral cleaners and a soft cloth are advisable.
Lumix Extra is as a rule lighter and more selected, whereas the standard Lumix can show somewhat more movement.
The price depends on the batch, thickness, surface finish and fabrication — with natural stone there is no serious flat rate per square metre. Business customers see prices once their B2B account is activated; private customers receive a complete quote through a fabricator near them.
