Characteristics
Rosal Dunes is a light beige limestone characterised by subtle darker veining that flows gently across the stone. Quarried in the Codoçal region of central Portugal, it is also marketed under several commercial names, including Codoçal GAB, Rosal Dunas, Semi-Rijo Codoçal, Cohiba and Rosal White Contra.
Its soft colour palette and understated appearance make it a versatile choice for both contemporary and traditional architectural projects.
Applications
Rosal Dunes is widely used for interior and exterior cladding, including ventilated façades. It can also be applied in bathrooms and wet areas, provided that appropriate waterproofing measures are implemented. Its durability and versatility make it suitable for a wide range of architectural applications.
