BATEIG STONE
A biocalcerinite extracted in the province of Alicante (Spain). The extraction of Bateig Beige, Diamante, Galaxy, Fantasia, Azul and Maroc Claro is conducted on an uninterrupted basis in our own quarry.
HOMOGENEITY
This stone features a high degree of homogeneity due to the fact both its mechanical properties and appearance colour remain unchanged over time.
QUALITY
Its petrology and physical characteristics have gained the seal of quality awarded by the Laboratory of Applied Petrology of the University of Alicante.
