Sandstone

Sandstone is a natural sedimentary stone formed from compacted layers of sand and mineral particles over millions of years. Its softly textured surface and warm, earthy character make it a versatile material for both traditional and contemporary architecture.

Sandstone is available in a wide range of colours, including cream, beige, golden yellow, brown, red, pink and grey. Its appearance can vary from calm and uniform to more richly layered and expressive, depending on its geological origin and mineral composition.

It is commonly used for flooring, wall cladding, fireplaces, staircases and architectural details. Suitable varieties are also widely used outdoors for façades, terraces, paving, pathways, steps, landscaping and garden structures.

Sandstone can be supplied in a variety of finishes, from naturally cleft and textured surfaces to sawn, honed and brushed finishes. Its technical properties can vary considerably between different varieties, so the stone, thickness and surface finish should always be selected according to the intended application and climate.

Natural variations in colour, texture and layering are an essential part of sandstone’s character and give each installation its own individual appearance.
