Natural Stone Curbstone for Urban Infrastructure & Landscape Bordering

Natural stone curbstone (curb stone) is a linear stone product used to define boundaries, separate surfaces, and provide structural edge support in urban infrastructure and landscape projects. Curbstones play an important role in road construction, pedestrian areas, drainage control, and outdoor architectural design due to their strength, durability, and long-term performance.
On this page, you can explore our natural stone curbstone products available in different stone materials, dimensions, finishes, and structural specifications—suitable for infrastructure, municipal, commercial, and landscape applications.

What Is a Curbstone?

A curbstone is a long, rectangular stone unit installed at the edge of roads, sidewalks, pavements, and landscaped areas to create a physical and visual boundary. It provides structural separation between different surface levels and helps manage water flow and surface stability.

  • Linear stone elements for edge definition
  • High structural strength and load resistance
  • Durable performance in outdoor environments
  • Functional and decorative applications
  • Produced in standard or custom dimensions

Curbstones are essential components in modern infrastructure and urban design.

Available Stone Types for Curbstone Production

Curbstones can be manufactured from various natural stones depending on performance requirements and environmental conditions.

Granite Curbstone

Granite is one of the most common materials for curbstones due to its high compressive strength, low water absorption, and excellent resistance to wear and weather.

Limestone Curbstone

Dense limestone provides uniform appearance and stable performance for urban and landscape applications.

Basalt and High-Density Stones

Basalt and similar materials offer high durability and are suitable for heavy-duty infrastructure projects.

Other Natural Stones

Material selection depends on project requirements, load conditions, and environmental exposure.

Surface Finishes and Edge Processing

Curbstones can be supplied with different finishes depending on safety requirements and design preferences.

  • Sawn Finish: precise and clean geometry for modern infrastructure.
  • Bush-hammered Finish: textured surface for improved slip resistance.
  • Flamed Finish: durable textured surface for outdoor conditions.
  • Split Face: natural rough texture for landscape integration.
  • Chamfered or Rounded Edges: improved safety and visual refinement.
