Seamless PBR Granite Textures – Realistic Stone Surfaces for 3D Rendering
Granite has been used in architecture and design for centuries, admired for its strength, elegance, and timeless texture. With our seamless PBR granite collection, you can now bring that same realism to your digital scenes — from polished countertops to rugged cliff walls, all available in resolutions up to 8K.
1) What Makes Granite Unique as a Material
Granite is an igneous rock composed mainly of quartz, feldspar, and mica. Its distinctive crystalline pattern, grainy surface, and subtle color variations make it an essential material for both interior and exterior visualizations. Replicating these details digitally is complex — but our advanced PBR workflow ensures accurate light scattering and depth simulation, capturing the stone’s natural reflection and micro-detail.
Each texture includes a complete PBR map set for full realism:
- Albedo / Base Color: Pure surface color without baked shadows or lighting.
- Normal Map: Simulates fine surface relief and grain patterns typical of granite.
- Roughness Map: Controls reflectivity, allowing polished or matte finishes.
- Ambient Occlusion (AO): Enhances shadowing between micro-crystals and surface pores.
- Height / Displacement: Adds subtle depth for close-up realism.
- ORM Map: Combines AO, Roughness, and Metallic channels into a single packed texture (ideal for Unreal Engine).
All granite textures are generated at 16-bit depth for smooth gradients and accurate material response under both indoor and outdoor lighting setups.
2) Types of Granite Textures Available
Our collection includes a wide range of granite types inspired by real-world materials. Each subtype reflects distinct mineral compositions, making them suitable for architectural, sculptural, and natural applications.
- Polished Black Granite: Deep reflective surfaces ideal for luxury interiors, flooring, and countertops.
- White and Gray Granite: Balanced neutral tones for modern architectural exteriors and minimalistic design.
- Pink Granite: Natural feldspar-rich variations used in classic monuments and historical facades.
- Speckled Gray Granite: The most common variety, perfect for pavements and outdoor urban environments.
- Weathered Granite: Rougher, eroded textures suited for cliffs, mountain rocks, or ancient ruins.
Each texture variant is fully seamless, making it ideal for large surface tiling — such as building walls, monuments, or environmental terrains — without visible pattern repetition.
3) Technical Details
- File Formats: PNG (lossless), WEBP (optimized), ZIP bundles containing all maps.
- Resolutions: 1024×1024 (1K), 2048×2048 (2K), 4096×4096 (4K), and 8192×8192 (8K).
- Color Profile: sRGB calibrated for consistent rendering.
- Tileable: Seamless in both axes, tested under wrap and offset visualization.
- License: CC0 — free for commercial and personal use.
- Included Maps: Albedo, Normal, Roughness, AO, Height, ORM.
Each granite texture has been rendered under standardized HDR lighting to ensure cross-material consistency with other AITEXTURED categories like Marble, Stone, and Concrete.
4) Realistic Use Cases in 3D Projects
Granite textures can elevate both modern and natural scenes. Below are examples of where these seamless PBR materials shine:
- Architectural Visualization: Realistic walls, flooring, stairs, and columns with fine detail reflections.
- Interior Design: Polished granite countertops and decorative panels for kitchens and offices.
- Game Environments: Rocky terrains, cliffs, or stylized boulders with rough granite bases.
- Sculpting & 3D Printing: Stone sculptures or monuments with true granite texture maps.
- Product Visualization: Photoreal surfaces for furniture, construction materials, or jewelry props.
All assets are optimized for both static and dynamic lighting, ensuring proper energy conservation across reflections and shadows.
5) Integration with Major 3D Engines
- Blender: Use the Principled BSDF shader. Connect Albedo → Base Color, Roughness → Roughness, Normal → Normal Map node, and AO → Multiply on Base Color.
- Unreal Engine: Import the ORM map directly. Base Color, Normal, and ORM handle most of the setup automatically.
- Unity (URP/HDRP): Albedo → Base Map, Normal → Normal, MetallicSmoothness (A) → Smoothness, AO → Occlusion.
For seamless import, try the AITEXTURED Mapper Tool, which automatically structures texture files for your target engine.
6) Enhancing Granite with PNG Assets
To increase variation and realism, apply overlays from the PNG Assets section — such as moss, cracks, stains, or dust decals. These transparent PNG layers can be added directly as material overlays in your engine or post-processing workflow.
- Nature Decals — Add moss or vegetation on aged stone.
- Grunge Stains — Apply dirt and rust for weathered granite.
- Surface Overlays — Subtle micro-scratches for polished finishes.
7) Preview in 3D
Each granite texture includes a 3D Preview button powered by WebGL, letting you rotate and inspect the surface under dynamic lighting. This feature helps you evaluate tiling, gloss, and micro-detail before downloading.
Choose your preferred resolution — 1K, 2K, 4K, or 8K — and instantly preview how the texture responds to specular highlights and reflections in real time.
8) Custom Granite Generation
Need a unique stone pattern? Use the AI 3D Texture Generator to create custom granite textures from natural-language prompts. Example:
“Dark polished granite with subtle silver crystals and high gloss reflection, seamless 4K texture.”
The AI instantly produces a seamless PNG, which you can later convert into full PBR maps using the PBR Generator tool — creating a complete granite material in minutes.
9) Performance and Optimization
For real-time projects, file size matters. Use our Image Converter to re-encode granite textures to WEBP for up to 70% smaller files while maintaining transparency and color accuracy. 8K PNG → 4K WEBP conversion delivers near-identical quality with dramatically improved performance in Unreal or Unity scenes.
10) Conclusion
The Seamless PBR Granite Textures section is the definitive library for stone realism in 3D. Designed for maximum fidelity, these materials combine accuracy, performance, and flexibility — allowing artists to achieve natural granite results across any rendering engine.
