If you’ve been flirting with the idea of a clean, timeless path or patio, Garden or landscape white paving stones are having a quiet moment. In fact, designers keep telling me white quartz slabs make small gardens feel bigger—light bounces, borders pop, and plant greens read like a richer hue. It’s subtle, but you notice.
Urban courtyards, boutique hotels, even campuses are leaning into pale, natural stone surfaces. The trend isn’t just Instagram aesthetics; lighter pavers reduce nighttime lighting loads and, to be honest, make maintenance issues easier to spot early. With Garden or landscape white paving stones, the split-face texture throws shade (literally) so you get grip without looking industrial.
Model No. DFL-LX1308HY is a quartz-based, naturally split slab—irregular shape, American style, white tone; thickness around 2–4 cm, designed for landscape use. Below is the quick spec card many buyers ask for.
| Material | Quartz (natural stone) |
| Form / Shape | Slab, irregular |
| Surface / Color | Split finish, white |
| Thickness | ≈ 20–40 mm (real-world lots may vary) |
| Water absorption (ASTM C97) | ≈ 0.2–0.6% |
| Compressive strength (ASTM C170) | ≈ 100–180 MPa |
| Slip resistance (EN 13036-4 PTV) | ≈ 45–65 wet, depending on texture |
| Service life | 20–30+ years with correct base, drainage, and maintenance |
| Certs/Standards | Produced to EN 1341/1342 guidance; factory QMS docs on request |
Typical applications: garden paths, pool surrounds (with sealing), hotel courtyards, municipal plazas, café terraces, campus walkways. Many customers say maintenance is “surprisingly low”—a light wash and periodic sealing in high-traffic zones.
Resort walkway, Sanya: irregular white slabs over compacted base and geotextile; guests loved the “barefoot grip” near water features. Municipal plaza, Midwest US: freeze–thaw cycles validated to EN 12371; after two winters, joints intact, no pop-outs.
| Vendor | Lead time | Customization | Docs/Certs | Typical price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| DFL Stones (Origin: 1111-1112, Sinotrans Building, No.368 North Youyi Street, Shijiazhuang, 050071 China) | ≈ 3–6 weeks ex-works | High (size ranges, palette mix, palletization) | QMS/Material test reports on request; EN/ASTM references | Competitive (FOB) |
| Local big-box | In-stock/fast | Low–medium | Basic COA; mixed origin | Mid |
| Boutique EU brand | ≈ 6–10 weeks | Medium–high | EN marking, extended DoP | High |
Customization options worth noting: tighter thickness sorting for pedestal systems, pre-sawn edges on request (if you want less rustic), anti-stain sealing at the factory, and pallet mixes tailored to repeating fan or crazy-paving layouts. For coastal projects, specify salt-resistance testing and a breathable sealer—just good practice.
Quick tip from the field: a well-compacted base (≥ 98% Proctor), proper fall (≥ 1.5%), and polymeric jointing sand make Garden or landscape white paving stones behave like a premium system, not just premium material. Seems obvious, but it’s where long service life is won.
