About Globe Memorial Co Pty Ltd

When it comes to granite, you need to be aware that the cheapest option is not necessarily the best quality. In order to reduce costs and be able to quote lower prices, we have noticed some companies offering below-quality memorials in the marketplace.

We are regularly asked by potential clients if their granite memorials will fade. As Sydney’s trusted memorial supplier, we can confidently say that fading is never an issue at Globe.

Globe Memorial Co Pty Ltd only buys granite that has been properly finished in order to achieve a rich mirror-like polish on the surface. Granite must be wet-polished over several stages, which is a time and labour intensive process.

The issues of fading comes from cheaper, lighter and grainier forms of black that are heavily saturated with dye then oil-polished to achieve a solid black and wet-polish look.

It is a cheaper process, however once this granite memorial is exposed to hot and cold elements, the dye and oil evaporate in patches, leaving the memorial surface and colour grossly deteriorated.
