Urban and road developments require materials that are both durable, aesthetic, and compliant with regulations. Noblema offers a wide range of granite kerbs in types P, T, and A, as well as standardised channels such as CC, CS, or custom-made solutions.
Additionally, our granite products are specifically designed to meet the demands of roadwork and urbanisation projects. Thanks to the robustness of natural stone, its exceptional durability, and its ability to adapt to the technical specifications of public works, granite kerbs are an ideal solution for all types of outdoor developments.
In this article, we present the different types of granite kerbs and channels, their standardised profiles, and their specific applications for outdoor development projects.

Colours and Finishes of Granite Kerbs
Our standardised granite kerbs and channels are available in a wide variety of dimensions, as well as finishes and colours, to seamlessly blend into the environment and design of each project:
- Bush-hammered / Shot-blasted Finish:
Featuring a slightly rough texture, this finish is particularly suited for pedestrian areas where grip is essential. - Sawn and Flamed Finish:
Providing a non-slip surface and a contemporary look, it is ideal for modern and functional developments. - Split / Rustic Finish:
With its raw and natural appearance, this finish lends an authentic charm, perfect for traditional or landscape-style projects.
In terms of colours, our products highlight the aesthetic richness of granite, available in fine-grained grey, medium-grained grey, black, yellow/beige, or even pink. Each finish enhances the natural beauty of the stone while ensuring its durability over time, resisting wear and intensive use.
The Benefits of Granite for Kerbs and Channels
Granite, as a natural stone, offers several key advantages for urban and road infrastructure:
Durability: Resistant to weather, abrasion, and heavy loads.
Timeless Aesthetic: Harmoniously blends into urban or natural landscapes.
Ease of Maintenance: Its surface remains intact even after years of use.
Compliance with Standards: Granite kerbs are available in standard profiles and dimensions that meet roadwork regulations, ensuring safety, accessibility, and reliability.
