Alito Quartz — Installed Spaces
Delivering across
All of South IndiaWe are an authorised distributor of Alito Hybrid Surfaces, serving architects, builders and interior designers across all of South India — Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Andhra Pradesh and Telangana — from our warehouse in Jigani.
As an authorised dealer we buy direct, so what you specify is what arrives — the same slab reference, the same batch consistency, backed by Alito's own 10-year warranty rather than a middleman's promise.
We are a young company, and we compete on the things a large supplier often will not do: honest lead times, delivery when we said, and staying on the job through installation.
Issued to Axon Global by Alito Industries Private Limited, granting the right to sell, distribute and service Alito Hybrid Surfaces products. The certificate is available on request.

| Porosity | Non-porous | Porous | Porous |
| Sealing | Never required | Reseal periodically | Reseal periodically |
| Stain resistance | High — non-porous surface resists oil, wine and turmeric | Moderate — depends on seal condition | Low — acids such as lemon and vinegar etch the surface |
| Scratch resistance | High — Mohs 7 | High — Mohs 6–7 | Low — Mohs 3–5 |
| Heat resistance | Moderate — always use a trivet; the resin binder can discolour under direct heat | High — the best of the three for hot cookware | Moderate |

Granite outperforms quartz on direct heat, so a trivet is still the right habit on any quartz worktop. Where quartz wins is consistency, hygiene and upkeep — no sealing, no etching, and slab-to-slab colour you can specify with confidence across a large project.
Screens vary — we’ll send a physical sample before you specify.
