If you are after something that’s custom made, Architectural Concrete (GFRC) may be for you. Do you think Caesarstone and granite are too similar looking and in a lot of homes? Do you want something that feels, looks and has its own character? Do you want to set yourself away from the mainstream? Consider one of our hand-made pieces! And with endless possibilities, you can tie in your architectural concrete benchtops throughout every room inside the house and out.

Yes, traditional concrete is extremely heavy, but our Glass Fibre Reinforced (GFRC) alternative results in a much lighter & more practical product. This method enables us to achieve a weight of approximately 45kg per square metre & allows us to prefabricate offsite, minimising the hassle & mess created when casting on site.

No two pieces come out the same, this ensures that our team constantly put out showstopping pieces that continue to blow our clients away with distinct patterns and textures. This can also mean that subtle colour differences can occur from samples you may have seen. This can be due to sand arriving from different quarries and cement lots or uncontrollable conditions such as outdoor humidity and temperature. We use a computer-based formula to calculate our batch quantities to within 0.01 of a gram, however, colour change can still occur due to the previously mentioned reasons.

Concreting can be a very messy process; however, all our slabs are poured in house to avoid any unwanted mess and to ensure a smooth and stress-free experience for our clients.

Like all stone products, concrete is extremely porous. We at Slab Culture use the best sealers available to give you excellent stain resistance and make your concrete as ergonomic as possible. However, we do still recommend you adopt a ‘clean as you go policy’ when it comes to caring for your product.

All our products are UV resistant and can withstand extreme temperatures throughout the year. Being non-combustible, GFRC is perfect for your next fireplace hearth or barbeque unit, whether it is indoor or outdoor, choose our 'Architectural Concrete'.

Whilst our GFRC concrete is very tough and durable, it is still possible to scratch and retain everyday wear and tear. We recommend using a chopping block when cooking and avoiding knocking corners, just like you would with more traditional benchtop materials. As for cracking- standard concrete is a brittle and hard product, but our GFRC blend contains polymers and glass fibre mesh that take a brittle material and gives it incredible flexural, compressive and tensile strength all to ensure that cracks will not last a lifetime for our clients.
