Application

Residential patios, garden pathways, terraces, courtyards, commercial landscaping, public realm surfacing, steps, kerbs, copings and setts for coordinated external hard‑landscaping schemes.

Description

Limestone paving is a dense calcitic sedimentary stone supplied in calibrated slabs for external surfacing. Black Limestone presents a deep charcoal‑black tone with a naturally riven surface and split edges, typically fading to grey when weathered. It is supplied in 22 mm calibrated patio‑pack formats.

Kilkenny Limestone is a steely‑blue limestone containing visible fossil fragments such as bivalves and crinoid stems. It is processed in stonewashed or flame‑textured finishes and supplied in standard 20 mm thicknesses in 600 × 300 mm and 600 × 600 mm sizes, with availability in ancillary products including steps, kerbs, copings and setts.

All variants exhibit high compressive strength, low water absorption and strong frost resistance, with generally flatter riven profiles than most sandstones.

Features and benefits:

  • High compressive strength enhances durability in external environments.
  • Low water absorption improves resistance to freeze–thaw cycles.
  • Naturally riven or textured finishes provide stable underfoot characteristics.
  • Calibrated thickness ensures reliable installation tolerances.
  • Fossil‑rich Kilkenny Limestone offers visually distinctive geological features.
  • Multiple size options allow flexible layout design.
  • Ancillary formats support integrated hard‑landscaping systems.
