Stairs are subject to heavy daily wear and should be both safe and visually appealing.
Whether it’s the entrance steps to your home, a basement staircase, garden stairs, or interior steps — a stone carpet offers the ideal solution. It stands out for its durability, low maintenance, and seamless finish that ensures long-lasting performance.
The slip-resistant surface also provides a high level of safety — both indoors and out. Whether you’re renovating existing stairs or designing new ones, a stone carpet gives you a long-lasting, stylish, and secure stair covering.
Whether indoors or outdoors – a stone carpet not only gives your stairs a modern look, but also provides slip-resistant, low-maintenance, and long-lasting surfaces. Seamless indoor staircases radiate elegance, while outdoor stairs benefit from excellent weather protection and reliable slip resistance.

Installing stone carpet on stairs requires precise craftsmanship and high-quality materials. Our experienced specialists follow a systematic process — from careful substrate preparation and waterproofing to the precise application on each step. Edges and risers are professionally integrated to create a seamless, slip-resistant, and visually appealing surface.
Depending on the stair material and structural conditions, different preparatory steps may be required. After installation, the stone carpet needs time to cure: it is walkable after 24 hours and fully load-bearing after 7 days. The result: a robust, low-maintenance staircase that will perform beautifully for decades — indoors and outdoors.
The substrate must be stable, clean, and dry. Suitable surfaces include concrete, screed, or existing tiles. Any uneven areas are leveled to create a smooth and even base for the stone carpet.
A primer is applied to the prepared surface to improve adhesion of the stone carpet. It ensures optimal bonding between the substrate and the subsequent coating.
The stone carpet is applied in one or more layers. The granules are mixed with a special binder and evenly distributed across the prepared surface.
