About Grabsteine Könemann
Könemann Laser-Natursteintechnik is a sole proprietorship based in Sulingen (Lower Saxony) that has been manufacturing gravestones, urn gravestones, grave slabs and pet gravestones from polished solid granite since 2001 and shipping them throughout Germany. The memorials are designed according to individual customer wishes: inscriptions, motifs and portrait photos are applied using modern laser technology or recessed into the stone by sandblasting and filled with colour. In addition, motifs are carved out of the stone (relief), edges are chamfered and ground, and coloured porcelain pictures and lettering plaques are offered. Granite varieties used include Supreme Black, Multicolor Red, Impala, Orion and Blue Pearl. The gravestones can be erected without a foundation or anchoring, and the necessary documents for cemetery approval procedures are provided. Customers are end consumers, funeral directors and pet owners; delivery is insured, free of charge to the door, throughout Germany.
