Create Stunning Outdoor Spaces with Adair® Limestone

This global pandemic has shifted many people’s attention to enhancing their outdoor spaces – from gobbling up kiddie swimming pools to planning more elaborate landscaping projects. At this point, who’s not interested in extending their living space and making ‘stay at home’ feel more like a staycation? For the restaurant and hospitality sectors, expanded outdoor spaces can increase revenue while indoor dining is limited. Pandemic-reasoning aside… investing in outdoor spaces can also be a smart decision that adds value and increases sales for residential or commercial properties.

Whether you are building new or looking to facelift your current property, starting with a hardscape design is a great place to start. ‘Hardscaping’ refers to the static, man-made elements of landscape design that are meant to remain for many years. As a permanent element, a well-planned hardscape should deliver the right function for the space, a classic aesthetic that’s appealing over time and superior longevity. For both residential and commercial properties, choosing long-lasting hardscape products that stand up for decades means lower maintenance and replacement costs, which is time and money saved.

**There’s limestone and then there’s Adair Limestone**

The word ‘limestone’ may conjure images of old institutional buildings and a nondescript, blasé looking stone. Limestone is also a prevalent landscaping product, but it doesn’t have to be plain and boring. Arriscraft’s unique Adair Limestone is character-rich – with beautiful grey-blue and sepia tones, a variety of patterns and available in many formats. Far from mundane, Adair sets every project apart from the rest.

Important benefits of Adair limestone

High Solar Reflectance Index

The Solar Reflectance Index or SRI is a measure of a material’s ability to reflect solar heat. Adair has a high SRI making it ideal for walkways, pool decks and patios; it naturally stays cool.

Superior Hardness Rating

Adair has the highest strength rating: ASTM C568 Type III. Lower ratings mean that the stone is softer and will wear more quickly. Type III is recommended for high traffic areas.
