What You're Getting – Shop Premium Quality

This is genuine Fossil Mint Indian sandstone in the versatile 800x400mm linear plank format – not manufactured tiles or composite materials pretending to be natural stone. You're getting authentic quarried sandstone with the extraordinary fossilized leaf patterns and soft color palette that's made Fossil Mint one of Britain's most distinctive contemporary paving choices.

The color? Absolutely captivating and remarkably sophisticated. Fossil Mint brings together soft greenish tones as the foundation, beautifully blended with warm yellows and creamy beige in naturally harmonious variation. This isn't bold color – it's subtle contemporary elegance that creates calm, sophisticated outdoor spaces.

Some slabs lean predominantly toward soft mint green with yellowish undertones and beige highlights. Others showcase warm beige as primary character with greenish veining and yellow accents. Many display gentle blends – beige backgrounds with mint shadows and yellow warmth creating sophisticated complexity within individual pieces.

But here's what makes Fossil Mint truly extraordinary – the fossilized leaf patterns. These aren't printed or artificial – they're genuine prehistoric botanical impressions preserved within the stone during geological formation. Some slabs showcase delicate fern-like fossil shapes, others display leaf outlines or organic patterns. These fossil marks appear naturally on select slabs throughout each pack, adding genuine scientific character that makes installations conversation pieces.

The 800x400mm linear plank format is brilliantly versatile for contemporary design. It's the elongated rectangular proportion that creates visual flow and directional interest – perfect for creating pathways, borders, or entire patios with linear elegance. The format works beautifully running lengthwise for maximum visual extension or laid across for geometric interest.

The 20mm thickness represents modern paving specification. This is proper contemporary thickness – substantial enough for excellent structural integrity while remaining easier to handle than traditional 22mm formats. Perfect for standard patio installations on proper sub-base.

The sawn and honed finish delivers smooth contemporary surface with subtle natural texture. Unlike completely flat porcelain, the honed sandstone retains gentle undulation that adds organic character while maintaining predominantly smooth feel underfoot. The precision sawn edges create clean geometric lines between planks – this is proper contemporary aesthetic with natural stone warmth.

How to Use It

Linear Pathway Applications: The signature use for 800x400mm planks. Lay lengthwise to create elongated pathways with strong directional flow. The linear format naturally guides movement through gardens while the fossil patterns add botanical interest along routes. Perfect for contemporary garden designs where flowing lines create visual extension.

Contemporary Patio Designs: Use 800x400mm planks to create entire patios with modern linear character. Lay all planks running same direction for uniform visual flow, alternate directions in grid patterns for geometric interest, or create herringbone layouts for dynamic movement. The smooth honed surface suits contemporary entertaining spaces.

Border and Edging Details: The elongated format works brilliantly as borders defining patio edges or garden zones. Lay planks lengthwise around perimeters to create clean framing lines, or run perpendicular to create soldier courses. The fossil patterns add subtle interest to borders without competing with main paving areas.

Mixed Material Combinations: Combine 800x400mm Fossil Mint planks with other materials for sophisticated multi-texture designs. Use as borders around Kandla Grey paving for tonal contrast, mix with porcelain for material variation, or combine with other Fossil Mint sizes for complex layouts with unified color palette.

Installation Tips

For 20mm thickness paving, you'll want 100-150mm compacted Type 1 MOT sub-base with 30-40mm sharp sand and cement bedding layer. A 4:1 or 5:1 mix works well for bedding mortar. The 20mm thickness installs like modern paving formats – you're working with contemporary specification rather than traditional heavy slabs.

The smooth sawn and honed finish makes leveling straightforward. The predominantly flat surface means you can achieve consistent levels more easily than with heavily riven stone. Use bedding mortar to accommodate the subtle natural undulation while maintaining overall flatness.

When laying linear formats, decide on your laying pattern before starting. For lengthwise linear flow, establish straight starting lines and maintain consistent direction throughout. For geometric grid patterns, alternate directions in defined zones. For herringbone, establish proper angles from centreline.

The precision sawn edges create tight, clean joints. Maintain consistent 10mm joints between planks using spacers or proper technique. The geometric edges mean joints line up precisely – this is contemporary paving where accuracy shows in the finished result.

Distribute the fossil patterns naturally during installation. Because these appear on select slabs rather than every piece, you want them scattered organically throughout the paving rather than clustered. Step back periodically to ensure fossil-marked slabs distribute naturally across the entire area.

The soft greenish-beige palette works beautifully with virtually any contrasting material. Edge with darker Kandla Grey for definition, combine with warmer Camel Dust for tonal schemes, or contrast against anthracite porcelain for contemporary drama. The fossil patterns remain subtle enough not to compete with other design elements.

What to Expect with Natural Stone

Here's what makes authentic Fossil Mint special – it's genuine quarried sandstone with extraordinary fossilized botanical patterns and sophisticated contemporary coloring. The palette is soft, cool-toned, and remarkably elegant. You'll see slabs ranging from gentle mint green through warm yellow to creamy beige, with most pieces displaying multiple tones simultaneously.

Some slabs lean predominantly toward soft greenish tones with beige undertones and yellow highlights. Others showcase warm beige as primary character with mint veining and yellow accents. Many display subtle blends – beige backgrounds with green shadows and yellow warmth creating sophisticated complexity.

The fossilized leaf patterns are what make Fossil Mint genuinely extraordinary. These aren't on every slab – they appear naturally throughout each pack on select pieces. Some show delicate fern-like fossil impressions, others display leaf outlines, some showcase organic botanical patterns. These are genuine prehistoric plant impressions preserved during geological formation millions of years ago.

When you're laying your paving, you'll discover these fossil-marked slabs naturally as you work through the pack. Most people position them strategically as feature pieces where they'll be noticed and appreciated. They become natural conversation starters – genuine scientific artifacts within functional outdoor flooring.

The smooth sawn and honed finish delivers contemporary surface that's predominantly flat while retaining subtle natural undulation. This isn't completely flat porcelain – it's natural stone processed to modern specifications. You get sleek contemporary feel with organic character that manufactured materials can't replicate.

The color remains beautifully stable. The soft greenish-beige palette doesn't fade or change dramatically – it develops gentle patina that enhances rather than alters the stone's character. The cool tones remain cool, the warmth stays warm, the overall palette maintains its sophisticated balance.

The smooth honed surface provides good slip resistance despite being predominantly flat. The subtle texture combined with sandstone's natural grip creates safe footing throughout British weather. The surface shows wet weather beautifully – colors intensify when damp, creating depth that dry stone only hints at.

Care & Maintenance

Fossil Mint smooth sandstone is wonderfully low maintenance – the predominantly smooth surface makes cleaning straightforward. Sweep occasionally to remove debris and the soft color palette hides everyday dirt beautifully. The greenish-beige tones mean marks blend rather than standing out.

Hit it with a gentle pressure wash once or twice a year to remove accumulated grime. The smooth sawn and honed finish responds beautifully to washing – colors brighten immediately and the fossil patterns become more visible when clean.

Many people seal Fossil Mint to enhance the color depth and protect the surface. A quality sandstone sealer brings out the greenish tones beautifully and makes the fossil patterns more pronounced. The smooth finish takes sealer particularly well, creating enhanced color saturation that showcases the stone's character.

If you prefer natural patina, the stone performs well unsealed. The soft palette develops gentle weathering that adds established character. The fossil patterns remain visible whether sealed or natural.

The 800x400mm format means replacement is straightforward if individual planks ever chip or crack. Simply lift the damaged piece and bed a replacement – the color variation means new planks blend seamlessly without obvious patches.
