Roach
With its unique, Portland stone fossil structure, Roach is ideal for stone cladding as a contrasting feature stone. As seen on the award winning BBC Broadcasting House.
Basebed
Basebed is the premium quality, fine grain Portland stone. Perfect for cladding, flooring and intricate stonework, it was used on Eric Parry’s award winning 30 Finsbury Square.
Whitbed
Whitbed is a very durable type of Portland stone with a unique fossil structure. Suitable for paving and cladding, it was used on Eric Parry’s award winning New London Stock Exchange.
WHITBED RESIN-FILLED
Our Whitbed in it’s natural state contains small voids on the surface. We can fill these voids with resin when specifying for internal or external flooring.
BASEBED POLISHED
Our premium fine grained Limestone can be enhanced by polishing. It is perfect for commercial and residential use in prestigious homes, hotels and stores.
BASEBED BRUSHED
The brushing process leaves the stone with a slightly riven texture. Such a product is ideal for residential and commercial use as flooring and feature walls.
