Sölker marble, unlike conventional marble, has a very high primary hardness.

The formation of Sölker marble dates back to more than 350 million years ago. Its extreme age and its distinctive origin story make it one of the highest quality natural stones in the world.

The course crystalline structure, high compaction and primary strength, compressive and flexural strength, and wear, frost and de-icing salt resistance make it highly attractive as a material for terrazzo, artificial stone products, coatings, adhesives and filler compounds.

Its high quality guarantees colour fastness. The range of grain sizes starts at 0 mm for dusts and goes up to 27 mm for granules.

Delivery forms are in packaging units ranging from sacks to big bags or in bulk.
