Recycled Granite – The new trend

What do you do with that “old”, beautiful granite counter top you’ve just replaced? Recycle it, of course! Natural stone, like granite, is both beautiful and durable thus, making it easy and cost effective to recycle. Not to mention it’s an Eco-friendly choice. Recycling granite is the process of breaking down the material by hand into smaller, thinner pieces. Each individual split stone tile is different, giving room for beautiful eye-catching creations such as walls, counters and even street paving. If you’re not up for a “do it yourself” project, there are also many “green” businesses that specialize in manufacturing recycled granite, like Recycled Granite in Saint John, Indiana or Granite Reworks in Richmond, IL.
