About Panna Fragola

Panna Fragola is one of those pale granites that do not look sterile. The ground colour lies between white, cream and ivory, joined by fine rosé to reddish mineral dots that give the stone warmth without making it colourful. The material looks friendly, restrained and easy to combine. For kitchens, window sills, stairs and pale façade details in particular this is an advantage, because the stone has presence without becoming dominant.

The stone comes from Bahia in Brazil and has long been established in the trade as a pale granite. Petrographically it is more precisely a granulite, that is, a metamorphic rock. In practice, however, Panna Fragola is used like a granite and is also sought out as one. That fits, because the technical properties lie clearly in the range of a hard-wearing hard rock and the stone performs convincingly both indoors and outdoors.

Suitability by application

Finishes

Panna Fragola is available in a range of finishes. The finish affects appearance, feel and the care it needs.

Polished

Polishing is the most classic finish in the hard stone segment — a mirror-smooth, high-gloss surface with the highest possible colour intensity and maximum depth effect in the mineral structure. As an acid-resistant silicate stone, polished granite is easy to care for and the first choice for kitchen worktops, wall claddings and prestigious exposed surfaces.

Care & fabrication

Panna Fragola is easier to look after than marble or limestone, but still benefits from a good impregnation, above all on kitchen worktops and pale floor areas. Oils and coloured liquids can then be kept under control more easily.

For cleaning and care, pH-neutral natural stone cleaners and a soft cloth are enough. On polished pale surfaces, metal abrasion, limescale rings and greasy residues should not be left lying for any length of time.

Aggressive acids are less critical for a hard rock than for marble; even so, strongly acidic or strongly abrasive cleaners are unnecessary. They put more strain on the surface and the joints than on the stone itself.

Outdoors, Panna Fragola shows good everyday capability. What matters there above all are the right finish, clean drainage and professional detailing.

Frequently asked questions

Is Panna Fragola suitable for the kitchen?

Yes. At 2,590 kg/m³ bulk density, 116 MPa compressive strength and only 0.39 % water absorption, Panna Fragola is clearly kitchen-capable and considerably easier to look after than pale marble.

Is Panna Fragola really a granite?

In the trade yes. Petrographically Panna Fragola is more precisely a granulite, but because of its performance in use and its market position it is listed as a granite.

Where does Panna Fragola come from?

Panna Fragola comes from Bahia in Brazil and is also known under names such as Branco Itaunas.

Which surface finishes are available for Panna Fragola?

The surface finishes available from stock are listed in the »Finishes« block on this page.

Panna Fragola or Bethel White?

Bethel White looks cooler and almost pure white, Panna Fragola warmer and somewhat livelier. Technically both are hard-wearing; in design terms they differ clearly.

What does Panna Fragola cost?

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.
