Our origin

Rooted in Sinai.
Guided by the stone.

SinaiGrey is the natural grey stone identity of Shalash Group — shaped around the material we quarry in Sinai, Egypt.

Since 2003, our work has followed the stone from its geological origin through extraction, selection and preparation for architectural use.

Each block is considered for its physical and mechanical characteristics, natural colour and distinctive surface. The result is a collection of stones with their own character, ready to be specified for considered spaces.

From private residences to commercial and public environments, we believe the material should speak for itself.

The journey of the stone

From the quarry
to the finished surface.

A connected journey of extraction, selection, transport and preparation — with the stone at the centre of every decision.

  1. Our quarries

    Our stone begins in the natural grey formations of Sinai, where the landscape reveals each block’s character.

  2. Extracting blocks

    Specialist cutting equipment and experienced crews work through the stone with care. Each block is selected and graded according to its natural characteristics.
