Warm sandstone tones with fine sediment layering and natural grain, slip resistance up to R11 — especially suited to outdoor terraces, gardens and wet areas
Australian Sandstone Sintered Stone · Samples, Specs & Applications
Australian Sandstone brings the warmth of natural sandstone indoors while eliminating its porosity, moss growth and difficult maintenance. The surface can be made slip-resistant, staying firm underfoot when wet; large slabs on terraces greatly reduce joints and dirt traps.

Applications Applications
🌿
🌿 Outdoor terrace & balcony
R11 anti-slip stays firm when wet; large slabs reduce joints where dirt collects.
🌳
🌳 Garden walkway
The warm sandy tone sits naturally with greenery and holds its colour through rain and sun.
🏊
🏊 Poolside
Near-zero absorption plus anti-slip makes it ideal for pool surrounds.
🍳
🍳 Outdoor kitchen / bar counter
Heat- and scratch-resistant; hot pans and charcoal grills can be placed directly.
🛁
🛁 Bathroom wet & dry zones
Anti-slip plus non-porous surface — safe and easy to clean in the bathroom.
🏢
🏢 Commercial outdoor plaza
Large-format paving withstands heavy footfall without looking cramped.
Optional Surface Treatments
Dry-granule anti-slip or honed finishes are recommended for Australian Sandstone, achieving R11 under wet foot; matte or antique finishes suit walls and indoor floors.
