We have our own manufacturing plant located at the quarry. At the factory the stone can be processed to the stage required by the customer.
The Spielvogel Blocksaw accommodates a blade of up to 4m and cuts up to 6 blocks simultaneously into slabs or billets (2.2m x 1.2m) on an automatic cycle. Slabs can then be processed by a Farnese High Production Auto Bridgesaw, also known as a dual table bridge saw, which provides a product with six sawn faces.
The stone can be finished by our on-site Stonemason who provides a hand finished product worked to the specifications of the customer. There are a variety of finish styles to choose from on the Front and Edge of the product.
- Front Finish:
- Rockfaced
- Hydrasplit
- Sparrow Pecked
- Bush Hammered
- Convict Picked
- Edge Finish:
- Bullnosed
- Half Bullnosed
- Chamfer
- Pencil Round
- Arriss
We hold large volumes of slab stock in various colours which enables shorter lead times for processing.
The quarry has distinct areas for loading of export blocks, retaining material and other products, this reduces the environmental impact on any one area and enables us to manage dust, water runoff and additional environmental issues more effectively, in accordance with our approved EPA plans.
All of our cutting and processing machinery uses recycled water. We have dams on-site to capture runoff and remove silt, water can then be returned to the processing plant for re-use.
Areas that are not quarried remain undisturbed and pristine.
