Some 6000+ years ago pre-historic man was taking rock from the ground and shaping it with primitive tools, primarily for building.
As skills and knowledge of the materials grew, tools and techniques developed allowing stone to be worked in to more and more complex shapes and designs.
Over the generations we have learned to manufacture pre-cast stone allowing for a more manageable material to manipulate, design and produce at competitive prices.
Techniques such as using fibreglass and rubber moulds allow us to copy and recreate architectural features on historic buildings helping us to retain our national heritage. Key Stone Casting Ltd are keen to venture into new techniques, fashion bespoke designs and create a new product range making Key Stone Manufacture Ltd the industries most desirable company to work with you on your projects.
One of the most famous examples of cast stone is the Sagrad Familia Barcelona the unfinished masterpiece is still in construction and hopes to be completed by the centenary of its architect Antoni Goudi’s death in 1926.
This is one of our Directors favourite building projects and should be an inspiration to everybody in the construction industry.
