Today some of our sales team had a very interesting factory tour of Beckstone in Burford where they produce reconstituted stone walling. We were shown the process of creating, curing, splitting and tumbling their walling. A process which produces a very high quality product that looks like natural stone.

If you would like any information or samples of the walling then please let us know and our sales team will be happy to help.

Thanks ever so much for the Team at Bekstone for showing us around!
