Frequently Asked Questions
What thickness should I choose for stepping stones?
25mm to 35mm is standard for most garden pathways with foot traffic only. Thicker cuts can be specified if the stones will bear occasional heavier load or sit on uneven ground.
How much does a stepping stone weigh?
Roughly 70kg per square meter of coverage, or about 8kg for an average individual piece, though this varies with stone density and size.
What’s the difference between a stepping stone and a paving slab?
Stepping stones are laid as individual, spaced pieces with visible gaps between them, while paving creates a continuous, joined surface across the whole area.
Which stone is best for stepping stones, sandstone or granite?
Sandstone is the most commonly used for its natural texture and warmer tones, while granite is chosen where greater durability and a more uniform surface are priorities.
Can stepping stones be custom shaped?
Yes, beyond standard round and oval shapes, custom cuts like rectangular sleepers, hearts, and irregular random shapes can be produced to order.
Does Arpran Industries export stepping stones internationally?
Yes, we export garden stepping stones to buyers across the UAE, Europe, USA, and African markets, managing logistics and documentation directly.
