Durability vs. Weight
Modern architecture is split. Porcelain Slabs are lighter (6mm) and allow for cheaper substructures. However, porcelain can be brittle upon impact from hail or debris.
The Case for Granite
Granite is heavy but offers superior impact resistance. A 30mm granite slab anchored with stainless steel undercut bolts is bulletproof. Aesthetic Aging: Granite develops a patina over time; Porcelain maintains its factory look. For heritage or monumental buildings that need to look 'solid', Granite remains the prestige choice. For sleek, futuristic towers, Porcelain is winning.
