Natural Stone Finishes
Belgian blue stone and Vinalmont Meuse limestone
Belgian blue stone and Vinalmont Meuse limestone are available in various finishes. Each finish gives the natural stone a different appearance, texture, and slip resistance.
Below are the most common finishes for applications such as patios, facades, floors, and thresholds.
SAWN
A sawn finish results in a smooth, light gray surface with possible saw marks that gradually fade.
Application: Suitable for all applications, both indoors and outdoors.
GRAY, SANDED
A gray sanded finish produces a smooth, even, light-gray surface with visible light circular sanding marks but without saw marks
Application: Suitable for all applications, both indoors and outdoors.
BLUE SANED
A blue-sanded finish produces a smooth, even blue surface.

SWEETENED

Application : For indoor use only. Not recommended for outdoor use due to its tendency to be slippery and because this finish will develop a grayish patina over time.
SANDBLASTED
A sandblasted finish creates a smooth gray surface with a fine texture
Application : all outdoor applications requiring a slight anti-slip effect
CHIPPED
A bush-hammered finish creates a gray, uneven surface with black specks
Application : For indoor use only. Not recommended for outdoor use due to its tendency to be slippery and because this finish will develop a grayish patina over time.
FLAMED AND BRUSHED
A flamed and brushed finish creates a dark gray surface with irregular imperfections. The brushing ensures that there are no loose flakes left. This results in a perfectly slip-resistant surface.
Application : All indoor and outdoor applications. Ideal for use as a non-slip surface in damp areas, around pool edges, on patios…
GEFRIJND
A chamfered finish creates a surface with regular, parallel grooves.
Application : For indoor use, but its non-slip surface makes it ideal for outdoor use. It is often chosen as a finish for the front of a threshold
