Building material with a historical flair
Like basalt lava, Weiberner Tuff is a natural stone of volcanic origin and has been mined here since Roman times and processed as a stone. He is the material of church building in the Rhine-Ruhr area and countless sacred buildings in the Rhineland. The Maria Laach Monastery, which is well known beyond its borders, is primarily built of tuff and Mendig basalt and is considered one of the most beautiful monuments of Romanesque architecture in Germany.
Due to its properties, the building material with the historical flair is easy to work, expressive and inexpensive. In addition to restorations, Weiberner Tuff is increasingly becoming a building material for the modern age. Weiberner Tuff can now be found as a pre-hung natural stone façade or as a masonry facing shell on well-known objects throughout Europe.
Also this stone wins by various surface treatments a very special charisma. Whether sanded, strained, scratched or tufted, the various types of surface treatment accentuate the unique charm of this stone.
In addition, the warm color creates a special atmosphere. It gives buildings a harmonious appearance and enables expressive design options in architectural planning.
