braun-steine’s concrete stones are regionally manufactured in the federal state of Baden-Württemberg, which guarantees quick transport routes, steady availability and independence from suppliers in other countries. Being able to offer creative and durable stone systems using regionally sourced raw materials is an important task to braun-steine. To do so, the company tests unusual materials from the surrounding area, then modifies stone aggregates and combines them into a whole new creation.
FONDA is the latest addition to the product range. Thousands of years of deep rock and shimmering muscovite and river sands from southwest Germany give this paving stone its vibrancy and refined shine, thanks to a fine-blasted finish achieved through so-called patination, an energy-saving process for the highest demands on particularly resilient surfaces.
This new stone is available in the formats 30/15, 45/15 and 60/30, at a stone thickness of 8 cm each. The edges are additionally chamfered. On request, the elegant surface is protected from dirt with an innovative Clean Save 3D surface protection agent. The core contains 25% recycled concrete, which saves raw materials and energy whilst contributing to a circular economy. It’s this combination of different finishing processes that brings out the best in the raw materials used. The FONDA paving stone’s lively surface exudes a timeless aesthetic.
