Zhangpu Rust is middle grained yellow rusty stone with high content of quartz in chemical composition. It's quarries're located in Fujian province of China near Zhangpu county. Zhangpu Rust is famous for
being one of the best analogues for more expansive rusty granite Sunset Gold (G682).
Zhangpu Rust is suitable for production of:
- floor tiles
- pavement
- mushroom tiles (and other rough stone products)
It looks nice with natural \ flamed \ bush-hummered \ split \ pineapple surfaces. ZR represents
attrective yellow colour due to all not thermal processings and gentle yellow-reddish colour due to flaming processing.
In small quantities Zhangpu Rust can ensure good quality and uniform colour due to polishing surface processing, but in that case it defenitely requires resining to fill many small natural holes. We reccomend you do not take risk and change to Shandong Rust or Sunset Gold (G682), if you require polishing processing.
Zhangpu Rust enjoys below characteristics in comparison with its twin brothers:
