Bateig Blue

also known as Bateig Stone, Piedra Bateig, Bateig Azul

From the Novelda quarries near Alicante, Bateig Blue is a distinctively cool grey-blue fossiliferous limestone widely used in contemporary European facade design. Its muted, cool palette and crisp sawn surface have made it a favourite for modern curtain-wall cladding, entrance lobbies and monolithic bathroom walls. Available in thin-panel formats for rainscreen systems.
