# Indian Sandstone Paving Slabs

Indian sandstone paving is a popular [natural stone paving](/collections/natural-stone-paving-slabs "natural stone paving") choice for UK patios, garden paths and landscaping projects. It is valued for natural colour variation, practical outdoor grip and a choice of finishes, from traditional riven sandstone to smoother sawn and honed sandstone slabs. Our Indian sandstone paving is stocked in Ipswich, UK, which helps us dispatch orders quickly and support reliable nationwide delivery.

Unlike printed or manufactured paving, Indian sandstone is cut or split from natural sedimentary stone. Each slab has its own tone, bedding marks and surface character, giving patios a natural finish that works well with planting, lawns, brickwork, older properties and modern outdoor spaces.

## Selected 22mm Calibrated Riven Indian Sandstone

Our main riven Indian sandstone paving is selected in a 22mm calibrated specification, giving better strength, consistency and installation control than thinner 18mm economy slabs. This makes it a more reliable choice for UK patios, paths and garden landscaping where long-term performance matters.
