What is Black Galaxy Granite?

Black Galaxy Granite is a factory-pressed quartz slab rather than quarried rock, which is why it is non-porous and never sealed. Quartz is the least expensive stone Ace fabricates, at $120 to $150 per square foot installed. Visually it is black.

Sizes

Black Galaxy Granite is made in 6 sizes. Size is the decision people skip and then notice every day: it sets how much grout line ends up in the field, and a larger module on the same wall reads calmer than a small one.

What to expect once it is installed

The ratings that decide whether the finished counter matches the sample.

Piece-to-piece variation: Low

Piece-to-piece variation is rated low, so what you see in a sample is a fair guide to the counter.

Certifications

What it holds: GreenGuard Gold · USGBC/LEED. Gold is not a marketing tier — it caps what the material is allowed to give off indoors, measurably lower than the base certification. It earns LEED credit as well, where a project is counting them.

What to put next to it

Built from the color we measured off Black Galaxy Granite itself, not from its name.

Forget the name for a moment. The swatch measures #232C31 — very dark and cool — which puts it nearest Black / Charcoal Stone in our pairing data. It sits close to neutral, which means it will take direction from the cabinets rather than fight them.

Cabinets

Pure White — tuxedo scheme; hides counter mess that white counters broadcast. Against this surface it is much lighter, so the cabinets carry the room and this recedes classic
Natural / White Oak — black leathered stone gives oak an edge. Against this surface it is much lighter, so the cabinets carry the room and this recedes solid

Where can I use Black Galaxy Granite?

Its maker rates it for countertops · wall · flooring. We hold to that rating when we quote — installing outside it is how a warranty claim gets denied.

What color is Black Galaxy Granite, really?

We measured its own swatch at #232C31 — very dark and cool. It sits close to neutral, so it takes direction from the cabinets rather than fighting them. Names are marketing; that number is what the camera saw.

What is Black Galaxy Granite made of?

Black Galaxy Granite is a granite tile, which is what decides how it is cared for — see the sealing answer below.

Does Black Galaxy Granite need sealing?

Yes. The sealer is real maintenance, and it is yours rather than ours — a bottle, a cloth, and an evening every year or two. Skip it for a decade and oil will find its way into the stone.
