Sandstone Pavers & Coping for Patios & Outdoor Paving
The products below are pavers 30mm in thickness primarily for use on soft substrates such as roadbase or rammed earth. The extra thickness provides greater strength. Considerable cost savings can be made using thinner format tiles (10-15mm) if the substrate is concrete. The tile options can be seen be going to sandstone/willow on the menu bar.

Bullnose Coping - 400x400x30 & 500x500x30mm
Slipping Risk Low - Safe When Wet
Sandstone slip resistance tests results on Bellstone products reveal that they have excellent grip characteristics and provide extremely safe surfaces to walk on in outdoor arenas, even when wet.
Surface finishes include split face, honed and sand blasted. Under-surfaces are either natural split (variable thickness) or calibrated to achieve uniformity to a nominal thickness.
Project specific strength tests (flexural, compression & modulus of rupture) conducted for veneer and cladding projects, abrasion tests for high traffic concourses & piazzas and salt tolerance tests for swimming pool aprons can be conducted to ensure compliance with ASA standards.
Stone Tests - Independent & Honest Information to Reduce Risk
Testing stone is a fiddly and expensive process. Information on our test results are published so that our customers have a better understanding of a stone's capabilities. As new tests are completed they replace the old tests; nothing has been omitted or edited. Information on buying, fixing, maintaining and sealing stone products is available in the user guide section.

Concerned About Colour Variation?
It is very normal to be concerned about variation in stone colour. The photos on this website are chosen to illustrate the full variation possible. To allay any fears and avoid possible disappointment, please call us to make an appointment at our warehouse - we will happily unpack some crates so that you can properly assess colour before you buy.
