These articles may have a natural surface, if obtained from quarry floor slabs of various sizes and thicknesses and machined surfaces, if sawed from blocks.

Natural surface: these natural products may have split or sawn sides. Products with natural surfaces are suitable for external stairs, gardens, and walls, where the degree of finishing is rather rustic and with acceptable tolerances. Products with natural surface, but with measurements adjusted by machining, are suitable for effective external application solutions which enhance the physical properties of the material without alterating its original state.

Machined surface: these products, contrary to articles with natural surfaces, have uniform thickness (with the exception of semi-polished products), and their surface is machined by flaming, coating, sanding or polishing, depending on the desired final effect. The sawn sides can be treated with the same machining of the surfaces and shaped where required with a bull or half bull profile. Products with machined surfaces are more refined and elaborate, and they are ideal for high-quality applications, both for external use (for which we recommend the flamed type) and interiors (for which we recommend flamed, polished, honed, polished and smoothed types).
