Why Porphyry stone?
The Top Choice for Hardscaping
Low water absorption coefficient
Water absorption indicates a stone's porosity and durability. Stones with lower water absorption are less prone to freezing, cracking, and staining. Porphyry stone, known for its minimal water absorption, is exceptionally durable and resistant to stains, making it ideal for humid and harsh weather conditions.
Compressive strength
The volcanic nature of Porphyry stone giving it high compressive strength and Resistance to deformation. This characteristic makes this stone an unrivalled natural product in high traffic hardscaping projects.
Resistance to Salt/Chemical Attack
Porphyry is a durable and resilient igneous rock, making it an excellent choice for hardscaping. Its resistance to salt and chemicals, along with its toughness, makes it ideal for construction projects like pool surrounds and areas frequently exposed to moisture.
Low Maintenance, High Performance
Porphyry is a durable and low-maintenance paving option for outdoor areas. Its rough surface prevents slipping, even when wet, and it remains unaffected by freezing temperatures and chemicals, ensuring long-lasting performance.
Heat and Frost Resistant
Porphyry can withstand extreme temperatures, making it ideal for climates with hot summers, cold winters, heavy snowfall, and outdoor fireplaces. It resists cracking from freeze-thaw cycles, ensuring long-lasting durability and beauty throughout the year.
Eco-Friendly and sustainable
Porphyry products are an excellent choice due to their sustainable production and minimal maintenance needs over the years. They are more eco-friendly than other construction materials, considering energy use, production pollutants, and recyclability.
