Smooth Sandstone Paving is an exquisite natural stone option that seamlessly combines robustness, versatility, and aesthetic charm. This type of paving epitomizes the elegance that can be achieved through sedimentary rocks. Notably flaggy and featuring zero oil absorption, Smooth Sandstone Paving is a perfect choice for those who desire a low maintenance and long-lasting outdoor surface.
Sandstone is a natural sedimentary rock that possesses a range of physical properties, including:
Sandstone typically has low water absorption capacity, with the ability to absorb less than 1% of water by weight.
Sandstone can range from relatively soft to very hard, with a Mohs hardness scale rating between 6 to 7.
Sandstone has a density ranging from 2.32 to 2.42 kg/m3.
Sandstone is available in a wide variety of colors, including red, green, yellow, pink, gray, and white, among others.
Sandstone is known for its relatively low porosity, meaning it is almost impermeable and has minimal water absorption.
