Applications
Limestone Caliza Alba Rosal is a very versatile stone that offers a wide range of possibilities in interior and exterior claddings, as well as in pavements and pool finishing. Mainly used in traditional facades, as well as utilized in ventilated facades, and since several years, it is also used in interior pavements without gloss.
It is available in smooth finishes but always matt, being perfect for cladding or indoor pavements, or with subtle wear out details, which makes it perfect for its use with outdoor pavements and pool edges, it is also slip-resistant and very pleasant when walking barefoot.
