Terrazzo made in United Kingdom
Ethical Stone Terrazzo is a low impact interior and exterior floor tile made in United Kingdom using repurposed brick, natural British stones and low carbon cement.
/ Terrazzo from natural British materials
Using old bricks and natural stone from across the British Isles, Ethical Stone Terrazzo is the Manchester made terrazzo floor tile with a significantly lower impact than European origin terrazzo.
Terrazzo with a lower impact
In a process that sees stone waste collected from factories or sites across the UK turned into new premium floor tiles, Ethical Stone is the terrazzo made with a CO2 delivery footprint into London that’s 76% less than terrazzo sourced from Europe.
Ethical Stone also uses a low carbon alternative to traditional Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC). By utilising a by-product of the steel industry, this alternative reduces reliance on OPC by up to 50%. This ground-breaking low carbon technology means a lower CO2 footprint.
UK made
Making Ethical Stone in United Kingfom means a reduced transportation carbon footprint for UK-based tile specifications – over 90% of the UK market is within a 200-mile radius – and also brings low carbon innovation to an 80-year history of terrazzo tiles manufacturing in the city. The result is a terrazzo tile that supports UK industry in producing low carbon materials.
Finding new life for old building materials and hyper localising production within the UK’s second largest city, Manchester Brick is a highlight of the low impact approach of Ethical Stone Terrazzo. And it’s not just old brick that can be reused: glass, metal, concrete, stone and even timber can all be materials used in production.
100% British stone chips
The origin of every Ethical Stone tile can be traced to the British Isles. With marble from the Isle of Skye, pink limestone from Devon, black Welsh slate and Derbyshire limestone, Ethical Stone is a unique and beautiful British take on classic terrazzo tiles in effects that simply can’t be recreated.
Each of the natural stones used comes with a unique heritage – the white marble of the Isle of Skye was once sent to Italy to be used as a rival to fine calacatta marble and Welsh black slate has been recognised as one of the finest slates in the world since Roman times. These unique histories and strong natural features, bring an unmistakable quality to Ethical Stone.
