Top 10 Reasons to Choose Arriscraft Stone

When designing the home of your dreams (and the greatest investment of your life), you require many excellent reasons to choose your exterior stone. It’s no small decision – it establishes the overall style of your home and it sets the tone for paint colour, windows and doors, roofing, fascia, landscaping, and more.

While there is so much to tell you about our remarkable Building Stone, here are the top 10 reasons to consider Arriscraft in your planning process:

1. Unrivaled Styles – Our range of styles – from old-world Citadel® to contemporary Shadow Stone^® (all in natural colour palettes) accommodate every personal taste. See our selection.

2. Superior Durability – Our patented Natural Process technology creates stone that performs as natural stone from the earth. Our Building Stone offers high strength, high density and naturally low absorption rates for unmatched durability compared to other manufactured stone.

3. Ages Naturally – There are no fillers or sealers in our Building Stone, allowing our stone to breathe and age naturally. Your original design will retain its beauty through the decades to come.

4. Full Bed Advantage – Unlike quarried stone, which comes in random sizes and requires specialized and costly installation, our Building Stone is manufactured to equal depth, and installs using standard masonry techniques, like brick.

5. Lasting Colour – Many concrete-based, faux stone products provide their outer colour in a thin exterior layer; over time, this layer fades and the original colour is lost. Arriscraft Building Stone features consistent colour throughout the entire stone; stable mineral oxides in our stone hold colour in excess of 50 years.

6. Aesthetic Quality – Because our manufacturing process mimics how natural stone is formed, our Building Stone exhibits the same aesthetic qualities. Our stone is naturally light reflective, uniquely hand-finished and naturally textured.

7. Dimensional Stability – Our stone does not contain any artificial binders and so is not subject to the degree of shrinkage associated with cement-based products. The integrity of your construction will be maintained.

8. Sustainable and Green Choice – Arriscraft products are manufactured using natural materials and support the fundamental principles of sustainability and green building. Our product has zero emissions making it a wise choice for interior walls and fireplaces.

9. Lifetime Warranty – Arriscraft warranties all of its products for the life of the building.

10. Product Selection – In addition to multiple Building Stone styles, Arriscraft also offers stunning Renaissance^® Masonry Units, comprehensive accessories such as key stones, quoins and sills, and a range of Thin-clad products for both exterior and interior uses.
