CAMBRIDGE, ONTARIO – Arriscraft, manufacturer of naturally-made products that emulate quarried stone, introduces Urban Ledgestone – a brand new Building Stone product designed with simple installation and understated elegance in mind.
Arriscraft is the stone products group of General Shale, the North American subsidiary of
Wienerberger AG and a leading manufacturer of brick, one of the world’s oldest green building materials.
This natural, ledgestone-style Building Stone features long, sleek lengths in three sizes and two striking colors: Dusk and Frost. Urban Ledgestone is Arriscraft’s first product designed to be installed in a coursed pattern, which is incredibly easy and efficient to install (masons can pick automatically from the skid, installing one size at a time, without having to maintain a specific pattern). Urban Ledgestone can also be installed in a more traditional ashlar pattern. Either configuration creates a modern, elegant result.
Arriscraft’s Natural Process technology uses only natural materials (plus color pigments) and replicates how stone is created in the earth. This patented process creates Building Stone with the natural aesthetics and durability of quarried stone, plus the convenience of standard installation and unlimited supply.
