Already a market leader in the natural stone sector, Marshalls has strengthened its position by introducing a range of bedding and jointing materials specifically for natural stone installation.
In addition, they have added two new indigenous sandstones and three new finishes to their Indian Sandstone range.
Dave Stanger, Trading Director, Natural Stone for Marshalls said: “Marshalls has over 100 years’ experience as a supplier of high quality natural stone and we’re pleased to be bringing these new products to the market.
“Our experience, combined with continued investment in innovation, means that not only do our customers get access to beautiful and durable natural stone, but they also get a partner who understands how to help transform their visions into reality and work with them from start to finish.
“We’re very pleased with the response to the new products so far and look forward to getting the first orders delivered to sites.”
The result of a collaborative effort between Marshalls and Tarmac, the Marshalls Bedding & Jointing Materials are a range of three products to enable a rigid installation of natural stone.
All products are designed, manufactured and tested to British Standard – BS7533, which promotes results that can give a construction life in excess of 40 years, compared to a non-compliant system which cannot offer any minimum life expectancy.
For contractors, this creates an easier ordering process and the chance to purchase everything they need to install natural stone from a single supplier. The products are available to purchase either alongside Marshalls commercial natural stone or separately.
Alex Wright, Product Line Director, Packed & Specialist Products for Tarmac said: “Working with Marshalls has been a great collaboration helping us to knit together our collective knowledge, expertise and distribution.
“Giving this great suite of materials the joint backing of both companies will breed a confidence to the customer base. I’m really excited about what the future holds for us all.”
Recognising the beauty that can be achieved by blending different sandstone colours and textures, Marshalls has introduced two new indigenous natural stones, and added three new finishes to their existing Indian Sandstone collection.
Whilst sandstone from the UK is often the most popular choice, Indian Sandstone offers more colour choice and the full range now gives Architects more freedom of choice to mix and match. Marshalls’ commitment to ethical sourcing and technical excellence means that all new additions are sourced responsibly and meet industry standards.
A number of high profile projects have already used sandstone blends to great effect, including the Icon Outlet at The O2 in London, and the International Quarter, also in London.
