Silver Grey Granite is a cornerstone of UK hard landscaping, specified for its exceptional compressive strength, low water absorption, and clean, architectural aesthetic. Paving Slabs Direct® (PSD) provides a high-integrity supply route for this material, bridging the gap between our overseas-owned quarry operations established in 1997 and our dedicated UK direct-supply team formed in 2018. This established provenance ensures that every batch meets the technical demands of both high-end residential patios and council-grade public realm projects.
Technical Provenance: Overseas Owned Quarry & Processing — Westone Industry and Trade Co., Ltd.
UK Infrastructure: Direct Import Supply Platform — Paving Slabs Direct®.
UK Specification & Project Continuity: In the UK, Silver Grey Granite is the industry standard for durability. Whether utilised for private terraces or heavy-use urban footways, the primary requirement is Specification Continuity. Our supply model is engineered to provide stable colour tones and consistent physical properties across multiple project phases, ensuring that repeat orders align perfectly with the initial installation.
Supply Chain Integrity & Distribution: Paving Slabs Direct® functions as a lean, direct import supply platform. By managing the movement of stone from our own manufacturing facilities directly to our UK distribution centres, we eliminate the cost layers associated with traditional layered distributor networks. This structure allows us to offer exceptional price competitiveness while maintaining total oversight of the logistical timeline and material handling.
Direct Quarry Ownership and Selection: The granite supplied through the PSD platform is sourced from our own quarry operations. This level of Source-to-Site control is critical for professional-grade granite; it allows our technical teams to oversee block selection at the face, ensuring only the most consistent, high-density material enters the production cycle. For contractors, this means fewer site rejections and a more predictable installation.
Processing Precision & Technical QC: In our overseas factories, granite blocks undergo a disciplined mechanical processing routine. Utilising precision-calibrated cutting technology and controlled finishing plants, we maintain strict thickness tolerances and edge integrity. Rigorous Quality Control (QC) is applied at every stage—from the first saw cut to final packing—ensuring that our Silver Grey Granite paving is ready for immediate, high-tolerance installation.
Strategic Supply for Professionals: We do not focus on short-term trends; instead, we maintain a practical, controlled range of formats including the industry-favoured 600x600 and 900x600 slabs, alongside matching kerbs and setts. This focused inventory supports Supply Stability for builders, landscapers, and merchants who require a dependable partner for multi-phase developments where material matching is paramount.
Summary of the PSD Advantage: Paving Slabs Direct® provides a unique structural advantage in the UK market. By combining nearly 30 years of manufacturing heritage at the source with an efficient, UK-facing supply platform, we deliver Silver Grey Granite with unmatched pricing transparency and technical reliability. Our direct-from-factory model ensures that your project is built on stone that has been professionally managed from the quarry floor to your delivery site.
