Forticrete adds more options to its Gemini Range
Forticrete Roofing Products has launched two new mixed colour tiles, Sunrise Blend and Mixed Russet, to add to its popular Gemini range.
Commenting on the additions to the Shearstone range, Peter England, Regional Sales Manager at Forticrete says: "Planning requirements in areas where there is a strong tradition of distinctive, local natural stone are, quite rightly, fairly stringent.
"Working closely with our customers, we have created colours which closely match the look of the natural stone in the surrounding area.
The fact we have met regional planning requirements with our three new colours is a clear testament to the quality and aesthetic appeal of our walling stone".
Each colour is available in three face finishes; Split, the most uniform and smooth of the three options, Pitched, where each block features a raised centre and a rough effect and Cottage, which has a rough, irregular shape to replicate traditional stone walling.
