TRACHYTE

TRACHYTE ZOVONITE, an igneous volcanic stone,   is chosen when performance, enduring color and texture, complete freedom from deterioration, and low maintenance are prime requirements. It is commonly used to face commercial and institutional buildings and monuments. It is unequaled as a material for fireplaces, steps, road and driveway curbing and pavements, terraces, and to pave plazas and public spaces. It is also highly utilized as counter top material for its unique color and patterns, proven durability and lasting value.

TRACHYTE ZOVONITE comes essentially in four different variations:

  • Bicolor Trachyte (beige/brown and grey)
  • Yellow Trachyte  (or warm shaded, beige/brown and  yellow earth spotted)
  • Grey Trachyte
  • Nocciolina Trachyte (with no veins, exclusive quarries)

 

Trachyte, as a natural stone, is held in high regard as a premier building material because it reflects unique character, stability, and grandeur. Variations of colour, pattern, and texture are visually interesting and impossible to replicate. Also, because it comes from the earth, from eco-friendly compositions, it is a natural choice. It exhibits a durability not found in other building materials. There is an emotional connection to buildings and monuments built in stone that carries a great deal of meaning due to enduring history and a legacy of mankind through the ages.

Trachyte stone products possess innate characteristics that contribute toward LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) or LEED intended construction. Consider no off-gases to impair indoor air quality, high thermal capacitance, exceptional durability for low maintenance and temperature, and structural permanence. The use of Trachyte stone for your projects shows that you care about the environment and consciously strive to preserve it. It is one of a kind building material that sets you apart from others because it can’t be mimicked, manufactured, or faked.
