Arterra Full Range Bluestone 24x24 2CM Paver

The Arterra Full Range Bluestone 24x24 2CM Paver offers the timeless appeal of natural bluestone with the cutting-edge performance of outdoor porcelain. These large-format pavers are meticulously designed to capture the unique "full range" color variation often found in natural bluestone, presenting a beautiful blend of bluish-gray backgrounds with captivating undertones of tan, rust, orange, brown, and even green. This rich and organic palette creates a sophisticated yet earthy aesthetic.

Key Features:

• "Full Range" Color Palette: Unlike a uniform bluestone look, "Full Range" means these pavers showcase the diverse natural coloration of bluestone quarries. This mix of warm and cool tones provides depth and character to any outdoor setting.

• Material: Made from high-quality porcelain, ensuring exceptional durability, low maintenance, and resistance to harsh outdoor elements.

• Size and Thickness: Each paver measures 24x24 inches and boasts a substantial 2 CM (approximately 3/4 inch) thickness. This robust construction makes them ideal for various heavy-duty outdoor applications.

• Matte Finish: Features a sophisticated matte finish that not only enhances the natural stone look but also contributes to superior slip resistance.

• Durability and Performance:

  • Weather-Resistant: Engineered to withstand extreme temperatures, including freeze-thaw cycles, without cracking or spalling.

  • Stain-Resistant: Highly resistant to spills, dirt, and grime, making cleaning effortless.

  • Fade-Resistant: The colors are UV stable and will not fade even with prolonged exposure to sunlight.

  • Scratch-Resistant: Maintains its pristine appearance in high-traffic areas.

  • Low Water Absorption: Extremely low porosity prevents the growth of mold, mildew, and moss.

• ZeroSlip® Technology (Common Feature): Many Arterra pavers, including the Full Range Bluestone, incorporate proprietary ZeroSlip® technology, which provides exceptional traction on both wet and dry surfaces, significantly enhancing safety for pool decks and other outdoor areas prone to moisture.

• Versatile Installation: The 2CM thickness allows for flexible installation methods:

  • Dry-Lay: Can be set directly on a compacted gravel or sand base, or even on grass, for a permeable and easy-to-install solution.

  • Mortar-Set: Can be installed over a concrete slab using traditional thin-set mortar for maximum stability and a permanent application.

  • Pedestal Systems: Suitable for elevated installations on balconies, rooftops, or over uneven subsurfaces.

• Low Maintenance: Unlike natural stone, these porcelain pavers require no sealing, constant cleaning, or special treatments, offering significant long-term savings in time and effort.
