Stone for outdoor. Crazy paving
In any
project in which an outdoor space has to be filled, the customer’s idea is
reaching a natural combination between architecture and the surrounding nature.
An ideal option is the use of the crazy paving stone. Rocks quarried in boulders and split manually to create irregular random tiles usable in both outdoor paving and wall cladding.
Each
country has is geological sources, from limestone to basalt, gneiss, andesite…Here
in Spain they are Quartzite quarries.
Quartzite is a metamorphic rock, when high temperatures
and pressures produce the formation of a consistent rock composed almost
entirely of quartz from the original sandstone. Pure quartzite is the most
weather-resistant rock available, due to its high compressive and abrasion
resistance, its non-porous features, hardness, uniformity and strength that makes
it completely adequate for exterior applications.
As visual
properties, the Spanish quartzite has vivid colors, uniform or mixed, with a glossy
pattern due to the presence of quartz grains. Is rough to the touch but
leveled, with irregular shapes, as are not off cut material.
