A traditional use of limestone in construction is in facades. We can find them in office blocks, shopping centres, public buildings and homes. A millennial material that forms an aesthetic part of the urban landscape. With limestones, the facades of any buildings reach to an exclusively decorative dimension. Limestone facades play a relevant role in the external architecture, thanks to their exclusive colours, textures, hues, tonalities and technical characteristics.

Limestone facades are permeable, porous and matt; what more could you ask for in an external cladding. Limestone facades used at any buildings, reform a wide variety of external decoration styles. A well chosen finish to applicate on the selection will look perfect with its natural texture in classic touch or through a retro style. And nothing more suitable than an application of honed limestone to enhance an ultra-modern, cutting-edge, mise-en-scène facade. Limestone to be applicated as facade will add to the building of respectability, it is an ideal natural stone for use in exteriors and give a very minimalist, on-trend look to any building.

This natural stone possesses a series of physical-mechanical characteristics that gives it highly-valued properties in construction for the cladding of ventilated or bonded facades; its low thermal conductivity allows it to act as insulator in extreme weather conditions, while its high bending resistance allows thicknesses to be reduced, making structure lighter. Its white and cream colours make it widely used in architecture in the Mediterranean area. For facing of facades, the density-structured limestone is applied. The material is durable and keeps the heat in the room well and does not allow moisture to pass through.

Limestone panels are used in external walls of family houses, blocks of flats and hotels, as well as in shopping centres and office buildings. The uniformity of the stone makes it an alternative that is aesthetically much sought-after as a natural solution. Major avant-garde architectural projects for public works such as auditoriums, theatres and conference centres have been clad in this stone, especially in its lighter hues. However, the ochre and yellow hues of limestone are also highly esteemed among constructors as facades materials. Limestone is a perfect option for the exclusive, contemporary, luxury and charismatic building facades as a rustic and noble touch of nature.
