special hard wearing surface layer All Tobermore’s paving blocks and slabs whether they are basic or high value are made with a special hard wearing surface layer*. This process was introduced worldwide about 50 years ago and almost 20 years ago at Tobermore. This method dramatically improves the strength, durability, colour retention and overall appearance of our products.

Competitor products Weak colours and poor surface wear.


*For information on Tegula’s unique manufacturing process, please see page 10.

efflorescence can be dramatically reducedEfflorescence is the single biggest problem encountered with concrete paving products, as the ugly white stains spoil the appearance of the paving and not surprisingly customers are unhappy. At Tobermore all our blocks and slabs go through a special process to ensure that the occurrence of efflorescence is signifcantly reduced.

tegulaTobermore Tegula is made in a single layer using a very hard wearing granite sand to acheive a durable finish.

The unique aged appearance is acheived by a special tumbling process, which removes the hard edged regular look and gives the impression that the area has been paved for decades.

Tobermore Tegula ‘clean, beautiful colours’

The corners and edges are tumbled to give an authentic, aged appearence. We have a special process to tumble our blocks so they come out clean.

Soiled, dirty appearance with poor colour blending.
