Santafiora

It takes its name from the river that flows at the foot of the Manciano quarry (the Tuscan Maremma).
This is a 20-million year old sedimentary, frost insensitive rock.
It is sandy to brown in colour with barely perceptible layerings that lend it its warm, polychromatic effects.

USE AND APPLICATIONS. Because of the size of the quarry and the unquestioned technical/chromatic qualities, this stone may also be used for extremely advanced applications.
Thanks to its particular hardness it is used for cladding and paving big construction surfaces exposed to ice and salt and areas subject to earthquakes.

PARTICULAR FEATURES:
a high siliceous content with a breaking load of 830 Kg. /cm2
The chromatic and mechanical values are absolutely constant throughout production.
