Application

Suitable for pathways and pedestrian walkways in conservation areas and traditional architectural schemes, as well as in domestic and internal applications.

Description

Paving flags with a closed face, a velvet-like feel and embossed surface which provides a close match for natural stone such as Caithness or bush-hammered granite.


Manufactured from locally sourced aggregates, the brushed semi-sheen appearance is the result of a curling process which makes the product easier to clean and maintain than traditional flagstones.


Further details such as abrasion resistance, bending strength, water absorption class etc. are available upon request from the manufacturer.
