-Carola C-
Description & Features
Behind Carola C is a range by three Far East producers who, instead of Breton lines, use their own methods and shape each slab separately, in a manual process. It belongs to the whites with short veins: across a light background, which can look cool and slightly greyish depending on the lighting, spread numerous small, fine veinlets in soft beige-tan, curved and broken, with a slightly granular texture. There is no main vein and no direction; the veinlets are evenly scattered and low in contrast, so from a distance the surface reads almost as a single light colour with a fine marble texture. This uniformity makes large countertops in several pieces easier, since veins do not need to be matched at the joints. Its quartz-resin composition makes it non-porous, with no need for sealing; no measurements are given for Carola C, and the typical figures are quoted as an indication (about 7 Mohs, density around 2.3–2.5 g/cm³). The finish is polished, and thickness or dimensions are clarified when ordering. Beyond kitchen and bathroom countertops and islands, its gentle look suits splashbacks, stairs and interior floors. Water and a neutral detergent on a soft cloth are enough for cleaning; hot pans need a trivet, and strong acids or solvents should be avoided.
Why choose Carola C
- Short beige-tan veinlets on a light background
- Even, non-directional pattern – easy joints
- Low contrast for a calm, bright look
- Non-porous – no sealing
Technical Specifications
| Material | Engineered quartz composite – quartz grains bound with resin, slabs produced one at a time (not Breton technology) |
| Color & Pattern | White background with a cool, pale greyish tint and many short, fine veinlets in soft beige-tan |
| Hardness (Mohs) | ≈7 (typical for quartz surfaces) |
| Density (g/cm³) | ≈2.3–2.5 (typical range for quartz surfaces – not stated for this product) |
| Water Absorption (%) | Very low (typically < 0.1% for quartz surfaces – no value stated for this product) |
| Frost Resistance | For interior use – no freeze–thaw data are given for this product, and the resin binder of quartz surfaces is not suited to permanent sun exposure (UV can change the colour) |
| Acid Sensitivity | High stain resistance thanks to the non-porous surface; no chemical-resistance class is given, so strong acids, alkalis and solvents should be avoided |
| Recommended Finishes | Polished |

Frequently Asked Questions
Export & project supply
SKARIS MARBLE supplies Carola C to stone importers, fabricators, architects and hotel projects outside Greece. From our facility in Thessaloniki we handle the whole order in-house:
- Slab selection and matching – we grade and match the slabs for colour and veining, so a large order stays uniform across the whole project.
- Cut-to-size and finishing – pieces cut, edged and finished to your drawings, numbered per room or elevation and ready to install.
- Mixed shipments – Greek marbles, granites, porous limestone (porolithos) and quartz surfaces can be combined in one order.
- Export packing – crated and labelled for sea or road freight, ex-works Thessaloniki; delivered terms quoted on request.
Send us your drawings or quantities and we will come back with a quotation and availability.
