About Bateig Blue Limestone
Origin and appearance
Bateig Blue is a fine-grained blue-grey limestone quarried in southern Spain. Geologically it is a biocalcarénite qui date de la période Crétacé.
It is marketed internationally as Bateig Blue or Bateig Azul.
Its consistent colour and architectural performance make it a recognised façade stone. Freeze-thaw suitability must be confirmed for the selected lot and installation system.
Polished or honed finishes suit interior floors and walls, while textured slip-resistant finishes may be considered for terraces and pool surrounds after technical validation.
Applications and specification
Bateig Blue is used in heritage restoration and contemporary façade cladding, as well as interior architectural applications.
Its key visual quality is a soft, uniform anthracite-grey colour with a restrained blue undertone.
Architects and designers value its understated appearance for both interiors and technically validated exterior schemes.
For terraces, the selected thickness, textured finish, substrate, drainage and climate must be coordinated with project requirements.

Specification guidance
Specifying Bateig Blue Limestone for a high-end project
Bateig Blue Limestone is a refined blue-grey stone for façades, restoration, floors, walls and architectural projects requiring a calm, consistent surface. Lot, finish and format should be coordinated with the actual application.
For architects and designers
Assessment of the veining, large-format appearance, layout coherence, installation constraints and expected maintenance level.
For stone contractors and project teams
Approval of the lot, thicknesses, finishes, fabrication, transport and technical feasibility before ordering.
For discerning private clients
Comparison with related stones, colour and finish selection, maintenance guidance and support through to quotation. For high-end projects, Marbre Import can also coordinate the complete stonework package on the client’s behalf.
How should the actual stone lot be approved?
Approval should consider the available lot, colour, veining, format, finish, thickness and intended application. Marbre Import can support selection with slab photographs, samples and technical data.
Can this stone be used in kitchens and bathrooms?
Suitability depends on the stone, finish, treatment, expected maintenance and exposure to staining or acidic products. Technical guidance is recommended before ordering.
Why is pricing provided on request?
Pricing varies with the lot, origin, availability, thickness, finish, quantities, fabrication and transport. A tailored quotation reflects the actual project rather than a theoretical list price.
