Shearstone Walling

(l to r) St Marks Church Perth, Burnley General Hospital, Ballamona IOM

The broad Shearstone walling range of colours and finishes recaptures the tradition of many of Britain's most appealing types of natural stone and is equally at home on major commercial projects as it is on residential.

The Light Ham of Somerset and the Buff of the Cotswolds are just two examples of stone types admirably mirrored in the Shearstone range. The further additon of the new Banes Weathered colour to the range reinforces Forticrete's commitment to innovation.
