About the stone
Getting to know Jämtland Limestone Grey-Brown
A dark brown limestone with grey inclusions and an even, balanced tone. It works as the main floor material or alongside timber, brick and other natural materials, indoors and out.
Where to use it
Jämtland Limestone Grey-Brown is mainly specified for interior flooring, stair treads, facades, window sills, worktops and tables and interiors. Limestone and marble are more sensitive to acids than granite; an impregnating sealer and pH-neutral cleaning keep the surface at its best.
