Granite is Sweden’s most common rock type and is found throughout the country. It is extremely strong and withstands impacts and heat far better than most other rock types and materials. Granite’s appearance and properties vary with differences in grain size. Colour is dependent on where in the world it is quarried.

Bohus granite lasts from generation to generation and becomes more beautiful with each passing year. Our range comprises six different surface treatments and five different style concepts. These enable you to achieve exactly the effect you are looking for – everything from natural rusticity to hypermodern elegance, both indoors and out.

At Benders, we often emphasise that it is only your imaginations that set limits to our products. That is truly how it is! In Benders’ “Do-it-yourself”, we bring together a selection of inspiring building projects with step-by-step instructions and materials lists. We hope that these give you an idea of how you can use Benders’ landscaping products for more than just garden paths, garage drives, parking places, etc. We wish you every success with your building projects!

Compared to rival products, the items in Benders’ range of two-layer paving stones and slabs have prettier, tougher and smoother surfaces that are more water repellent and less prone to algae and moss. The ability to order several formats and stone sizes on a single pallet makes it easy to give your garden unique surfaces that are full of variety, life and character.

Concrete is an almost entirely natural product. It is made from gravel, sand, cement and water. This means that covering surfaces with our paving stones is more climate-friendly than laying asphalt, which is an oil-based product. Concrete is not only more environment-friendly from the start, its service life is a further “eco-bonus”. Our paving stones last as much as five times longer than asphalt.

Paving is both beautiful and practical in gardens. Furthermore, concrete paving stones and slabs are easy to lay and available in many sizes and colours. Creating your own personal oasis could not be easier! Do not skimp on the preparations when laying. They are the most critical factor in the success of whatever you lay.

Roof tiles are more than just protection against wind, snow and rain. They enhance your home, lift the overall look and form a fifth façade. Renovating or replacing your present roof can thus make a big difference.
