01. Material Characteristics

Also known as Lan Stone, it is a calcium carbonate sedimentary rock with a hardness comparable to granite. It features moderate density, exceptional wear resistance, excellent compressive strength, and no hidden cracks.
02. Origin

Belgium
03. Physical Properties

Bulk density: 2.69 g/cm³ (Standard requirement: ≥2.6), Water absorption: 0.044 (Standard requirement: ≤0.5), Dry compressive strength: 130 MPa (Standard requirement: ≥55), Dry flexural strength: 16 MPa (Standard requirement: ≥7), Abrasion resistance: 20/cm³ (Standard requirement: ≥10) Deep gray base tone with high gloss and refined texture. Slab surfaces are typically adorned with sparse marine fossil inclusions.
04. Scope of application

Ideal for creating diverse decorative finishes that evoke serenity, elegance, and artistic sophistication—reminiscent of works by Impressionist master Paul Cézanne (1839–1906).
