Reconstructed
Stone (Recon for short), also referred to as architectural
or self-finished concrete, simulates the appearance and
quality of natural stone. Components can be cast in a
virtually limitless range of shapes and sizes and utilized
as either structural or non-load bearing decorative cladding.
The mould-ability of this material makes it ideal for
producing traditional or contemporary masonry detailing.
In addition, by formulating special mixes utilizing specially
selected aggregates, cements and pigments, exact colours
and textures of natural masonry can be produced. Significant
cost savings can also be achieved because, unlike carved
natural stone that can prove extremely expensive and time
consuming, reconstructed stone can be produced at very
affordable prices. As a low maintenance material due to
its excellent weathering capabilities, it also eliminates
the need for expensive clearing and maintenance programs
in the future.
Such product versatility ensures we can achieve the most
challenging of design concepts - indeed, reconstructed
stone can even be supplied as perforated window units
with the windows pre-installed - with the highest aesthetic
standards as well as a rapid rate of building enclosure.
