Cast StoneWe supply an extensive range of Cast Stone products that can be moulded into almost any shape or size.

Dry Cast - The finished surface of Semi-Dry has the look and texture of natural stone, providing a cost effective and attractive solution. Many units can be cast in the same day, making it popular for mass scale projects such as housing or commercial developments.

Wet Cast - Wet Cast Stone products are ideal for use in load-bearing situations and where structural support is needed or where there is a high degree of environmental exposure. It has a comparatively longer curing process than dry cast, but is a more durable stone with a higher tensile strength.

Product Focus– Cast Stone

Glass Fibre Reinforced Concrete (GRC)

• GRC is typically only 30% of the weight of cast stone and provides an alternative to plastic (GRP) or timber frames.

• Unlike timber, GRC requires no painting, treating or maintenance. We can even match the colour of your existing stonework.

• Our most popular items are from our standard range of 6 door surrounds. We can also produce bespoke items tailor-made to your requirements such as window surrounds, canopies and heads.

• GRC can be post fit, so it can be stored safely at Amber Precast until your build is complete, meaning that it doesn’t impact on your critical

path.
