Champlain Stone has augmented its comprehensive listing of company-quarried natural stone material by now offering The Wood Creek Collection.
The firm is currently quarrying this gray-blue to dark-gray granite, which shows patterns of white swirls and striations with occasional quartz and mica inclusions.
"We're excited about this new material." stated Ryan McLaughlin, Champlain's Director of New Business Development. "It is produced both in rubble and sawn forms from which a variety of architectural stone applications may be specified including building veneer, landscaping applications and dimensional work.
"Additionally," continued McLaughlin, "its properties include being very dense and having a very low percentage of water absorption, make Wood Creek an excellent stone to be fabricated for architectural components such as countertops, tiles and more."
Wood Creek granite is quarried at Champlain Stone's quarry in Clemmons, NY adjacent to the firm's headquarters in nearby Warrensburg, NY. This quarry location is less than 500 miles from major granite-consuming metropolitan areas including Montreal, DC, New York City, Boston, Baltimore, Toronto, Philadelphia and more. Because of this convenient site on the map, projects which specify Wood Creek granite are eligible to receive LEED credits.
Champlain Stone, Ltd., which began three decades ago as a oneman operation, has evolved to become one of the largest and mostefficiently managed, Americanowned natural stone quarries.
The firm offers seven unique granite products, quartzitic sandstone, dolomitic limestone and a myriad of decorative yet rugged fieldstones, as well. Products may be specified in "as is" condition or from a comprehensive offering of blends, allowing virtually limitless stone designs to be achieved.
