French Limestone
French limestone is a plentiful, robust, and long-lasting natural sedimentary stone. It is easy to cut and shape, offers excellent resistance to weathering, and is well suited to flooring, wall cladding, masonry, and carved details.
Limestone’s technical characteristics vary by type, meaning certain stones perform better in specific applications. All our stone is fully tested, enabling us to recommend materials that are proven to be fit for purpose.
We source our stone from the finest quarries across France, some of which are owned by our partners, and we are widely recognised as the UK’s leading supplier of French stone.
