Natural Stone · Limestone
Limestone supplier to the UK trade — paving, slabs & tiles.
Turkey produces a deep range of building limestone — consistent creams, beiges and soft greys with the even, understated surface specified for contemporary flooring, cladding and external paving. Karpat sources direct, wholesale to the UK trade, delivered duty-paid. Every order is producer-matched to your tone, finish and format rather than sold from stock.
Character
Even tone, calm surface
Limestone reads quieter than marble — minimal veining, a uniform matte surface, and a tight tonal range that suits large continuous floors and façades where consistency matters more than figure. Turkish limestones run from pale ivory and cream through to warm beige and dove grey. Honed and brushed finishes are the norm; the stone is rarely high-polished, which is part of its contemporary appeal.
Applications
Flooring, cladding, paving
Specified for interior flooring, internal and external wall cladding, and — in frost-durable grades — external paving and steps. Because limestone is more porous than marble, the right grade and finish for the exposure matters: we match density and frost-resistance to whether the use is interior, façade or trafficked external, and supply the test data to back it. For outdoor formats, finishes and frost data, see our limestone paving page.
Formats & finishes
Slabs, tiles, cut-to-size, paving.
Gangsaw slabs, modular tiles, cut-to-size to drawings, and landscape formats (paving, copings, steps). Finishes: honed, brushed, sandblasted, tumbled and antique. Sealing guidance supplied per finish — limestone benefits from an impregnating sealer in wet and external use.
- Stock varieties — about 3–4 weeks order-to-door.
- Cut-to-spec & colour-matched — about 5–6 weeks.
- Sample-first — control sample signed off before the balance is committed.
Limestone enters Great Britain duty-free; we deliver duty-paid to your yard in GBP, or supply CFR/CIF for buyers with their own forwarders.
