Our UK production, innovative techniques, and hand-prepared approach form a unique assortment of unusual and distinctive sustainable materials. Our eco friendly materials are full of creativity and individuality, perfectly suited to a multitude of commercial applications.
Our collection materials are available in a supersize 3000x1200mm – making them perfect for commercial projects large or small. Panels are supplied with a single-sided semi-matt finish as standard, or can be finished for double-sided applications at an additional cost. There will be some variation in pattern between batches – all part of their charm.
Elements of the Welsh coast and countryside, with all its irregularities and nuances, can be seen in the beautifully unique, low carbon, sustainable materials we produce. Every surface tells a different story. And that’s something we champion and celebrate.
