Closed-loop water, open-ended craft
Take a 2-minute factory tour with Steve Vanhinsbergh as he explains stoneCIRCLE’s water recycling system, from sloped floors and drainage channels to settlement tanks, filter bags and a 72,000-litre rainwater store. See how we keep water flowing, reduce waste, and maintain high quality.
How We Cut Waste (Not Corners)
At stoneCIRCLE, sustainability is practical, measurable and built into production. Our factory recycles rain and processes water, runs on a solar array, and diverts surplus stone into construction-grade aggregate—while our masons keep final finishing by hand. Modern CNC gives accuracy; skilled craftsmanship ensures longevity. The result: less waste, fewer miles, and stonework that lasts.
Tech Meets Tradition
At stoneCIRCLE, tradition and technology go hand in hand. Our skilled masons refine every piece by hand, while CNC machines and waterjet technology ensure unmatched precision. From the historic Jenny Lind polisher to cutting-edge 3D stone carving, we merge craftsmanship with innovation to create stonework that stands the test of time.
