Basalt: Earth’s Timeless Canvas

Beautiful, bold, and hailing as the oldest building material on our planet, basalt has been nature’s artistic handiwork for millennia. New basalt materials are being produced at a volcano near you. Architects and designers have a wealth of choices in the realm of black basalt. This versatile stone, born from the Earth’s depths, finds expression in drivable, walkable, and buildable forms.

Applications For Basalt Stone

From blocks and steps to walls and slabs, the applications of basalt are as varied as the landscapes it has shaped. Now, with the advent of porcelain pavers replicating the basalt stone finish, the design possibilities are more abundant than ever.  Join us as we explore the enduring allure and expanded design possibilities of Earth’s most abundant bedrock.

Basalt Building Dimension Stone

It is hard to beat the beauty and grandeur of natural stone. Architects, designers, and homeowners that want longevity, eco-friendly design, and unparalleled character choose natural stone for their projects. Basalt has a long history in construction and architecture. In thin slabs it is used for building veneers, flooring, etc., and in its large columnar chunks it is used to create large durable stone objects, blocks, walls, monuments, and even art. Thicker cut applications include basalt pavers.
