TECHNICAL INFO

Machine-cast, reconstituted stone blocks are individually split to create a face that emulates the timeless beauty of hand-hewn stone.

Each piece is unique and its irregular texture allows the designer to express warmth and beauty, but with inherent durability and strength. We use a sophisticated, four-way block splitter rather than a standard guillotine process, making the splits regular and avoiding unsightly, over-emphasised contours from concave to convex within the face plane. The feeling of strength created by the rustic, uneven texture of the face is enhanced by the block's precise, chamfered arises. The chamfer helps to prevent mortar deposits from becoming embedded in the face texture. Split faced masonry can be used with Smooth faced masonry, or with materials such as metal and tiling, to enhance designs while remaining economical.
