Housebuilders, designers and specifiers looking to create that all important ‘wow’ factor for their developments can now take advantage of a brand new brochure from Bradstone, part of the Aggregate Industries Group.
‘Solutions for Housebuilders’ features Bradstone’s extensive range of roofing, cast stone and walling products. The complete range has been manufactured from reconstituted stone to recreate the look of natural stone, which is not only becoming a scarce resource throughout the UK, but is more expensive and often reclaimed which reduces the quality and ease with which it can be worked on site.
Mark Barter, commercial manager for Bradstone, commented: “Whether you are developing a traditional building type, a contemporary project or an extension to an existing property, the exterior of a house is vitally important in creating the first impression on a potential buyer and it can add value to a property.
“Our new brochure is designed to give architects and specifiers access to a variety of walling, roofing and cast stone products, available in a wide range of textures and shades, in one easy to find place. Bradstone’s range of reconstructed stone masonry is the closest alternative to natural stone at a fraction of the cost and with less wastage. This makes our range extremely cost effective and potentially more sustainable than the natural product.”
Produced in ISO 14001 Environmental Management accredited factories and manufactured to BS EN ISO 9001 to ensure quality and consistency, Bradstone’s range are not simply an alternative to natural stone, but a unique building material in its own right. The close tolerances of the products make them easy to work with onsite, guaranteeing outstanding results throughout England and Wales.
The brochure features Bradstone Roofing, Cast Stone and Walling solutions. Bradstone Roofing is individually moulded from hand dressed natural stone and retains the essential characteristics of a natural stone roof in either a diminishing course or single size format.
The Cast Stone range is ideal for adding value to any new build by providing stand out features such as cills, quoins and keystones, complementing any type of build, whilst the Walling range comes in a number of finishes, such as random rubble or striking architectural masonry, offering housebuilders almost infinite scope in the design process.
In addition, the new brochure showcases Bradstone’s recently launched Enviromasonry range, which provides an ‘A’ rated solution as featured in the Green Guide to Specification and is the first architectural masonry block to be certified under the BRE’s Environmental Profiles Scheme. Produced from secondary or recycled aggregates and utilising replacement cement, Enviromasonry has no requirement to change construction type for housebuilders to gain ‘Ecopoints’.
