Our quarries

We have 13 stone quarries in Sweden and Norway, all with their own unique character and history.

Bjärlöv

The Bjärlöv quarry is north of the city of Kristianstad in Skåne province, and has been around since the early 1900s. There is a rich deposit of granite here, which is world leading when it comes to cleavability, producing the beautiful, varied raw surface. It is also ideal for making paving stones, kerbstones and walls.

Duvhult

Duvhult can be found north of Lönsboda in the north-east of Skåne province. This is where we quarry Swedish Black Duvhult, one of the world’s most dense, fine-grained and black stone materials, which makes it highly exclusive. The Duvhult quarry has been operating since the 1960s.

Ekeröd

Our Ekeröd quarry is in the north of Skåne province near Glimåkra, and is where we mine a stone called syenite. Syenite is a crystalline plutonic rock that largely comprises feldspar and hornblende, and occurs only sparsely in Sweden. Syenite takes its name from the city of Syene, the old name of the modern city of Aswan in Egypt.

Flivik

In operation since the 1980s, the Flivik quarry lies north of Oskarshamn in Småland province. This is where we quarry Swedish Grey Flivik and the dark Swedish Mahogany Flivik, depending on which part of the quarry the stone comes from. Both of these variations are popular.

Iddefjord, Norway

The quarry is located on the Iddefjorden fjord outside of Halden in Norway, close to the Swedish border. At our Skriverøya quarry, which started as long ago as 1840, we quarry the grey Bohus granite. A lot of the stone was supplied for the reconstruction of Hamburg in Germany, which suffered a large fire in 1842.
