Stairs -A Step with Character.
Few building elements combine function and design as directly as a staircase. At CAMT in Riesa we manufacture treads, risers and block steps in natural stone, terrazzo and porcelain stoneware, cut to the millimetre - as a one-piece block-step profile with an integrated nosing or as classic step cladding. Whether a striking entrance staircase, a cantilevered indoor stair with glass balustrade or a weather-resistant outdoor stair: we advise you on material, surface finish and anti-slip edge treatment.
Requirements for Stairs
Stairs are exposed to high mechanical stress every day - material hardness, edge stability and an anti-slip surface are correspondingly important. Outdoors, frost resistance and weather protection are added to the list. Depending on the location, we recommend different types of stone, profiles and surface finishes.
In the CAMT showroom in Riesa we advise you on step shape, material and edge profile to suit your project.
