When industrial uses are concerned the use of kyanite is extensive be it ceramics, heat-resistant materials, bathroom tiles, abrasives etc.

The property that makes Kyanite outstanding is anisotropic which exhibits multiple properties with different hardness, the crystallographic direction is the main reason behind it. This stone has been ranging around 4-4.5 in hardness on the Mohs scale but ranges 6-7 when it’s cut perpendicularly.
