What’s New in Natural Stone

We at Mutual have been very busy in 2009 sourcing new and fresh Natural Stone offerings to bring to market for the 2010 season. We pride ourselves at being innovative and always looking forward to provide customers with the newest product offerings to go with our established lines of Masonry and Hardscapes products.

For the 2010 season we will be offering the following new Natural Stone products:

1. Natural Stone Pavers, Cobbles and Treads

2. Ledgestone Light - Lightweight Modular Natural Stone Panels

3. Glacier Mountain Natural Ledge Thin Veneer

4. Bitterroot Wall Rock

5. Montana Mossy Ledgestone, Patio and Boulders

We are very excited to launch our new line of Natural Stone Pavers, Cobbles and Treads, as they will make any Hardscape project stand out.

We will be stocking tumbled Slates, Limestone’s, and Quartzite’s in three colors and sizes 4”x4”, 4”x8” and 8”x8” all two inches thick. Colors will be Cool Jazz, Autumn Rust and Moon Dance. These are intended to compliment our RoxPro stone panel line.

We will be featuring three colors of Flamed and Beveled Granite pavers in a 4”x8”x2”: Black Crystal, Golden Topaz and Olde Pewter. Two sizes of Granite Treads will also be stocked in Black Crystal and Olde Pewter (12”x2”x8’ and 18”x2”x8’). The top and front face will be a flamed (thermaled) surface. We will also be stocking Tumbled Granite Cobbles in three colors in a 4”x4”x3” size.

All of our Natural Stone Pavers can be sand or mortar set depending on the requirements of the project and the desired look. There are many other sizes, colors and textures that can be special ordered to fit any customers needs or imagination.

We are pleased to add Ledgestone Light to our line of Modular Stone Panels. These panels are lighter in weight than our current Ledgestone panels, weighing 15lbs per Sqft, qualifying them as a thin veneer. They will provide the same weathered edge look and reveal of a ledgestone without the added weight. We will be stocking Ledgestone Light in Autumn Horizon and Rocky Mountain.

Glacier Mt, Natural Ledge Thin Veneer is our most current offering in Thin Veneer Cut-Stone. This Argillite stone, from the Northern Montana Rockies, has a cream base with hues of gold, black, and light gray’s running throughout. This stone can also be special ordered in full bed and thin veneer in many other shapes and sizes to meet any projects requirements.

Bitterroot Wall Rock is low cost Montana stone that’s uses can be very versatile. This stone features vibrant hues of burgundy, gold, and bronze set against a neutral background of gray’s and browns with some occasional moss on some stones. This stone can be used in many Hardscape and Masonry applications from Drystack walls, to rustic fireplace veneers and will add value to any project.

Montana Mossy comes from the rolling plains of Eastern Montana. This brown Sandstone has been weathered and covered with Lichens and mosses for centuries and will add a rustic natural look to any project. Mutual Materials stocks this product in Ledgestone, 1-3 Patio, and Boulders.
