COLOR CONSISTENCY
Adding new Lithocrete® to existing Lithocrete® is performed seamlessly with perfect color matching. Lithocrete’s®
standard series of aggregates are from quarries that have good, long-term consistency characteristics. Projects installed
more than 25 years ago using Lithocrete® paving can be matched almost perfectly today. The Opus Center / Koll Center
pictured below and on page 2 features five separate phases of Lithocrete® installed over a span of nearly 25 years with
perfect color consistency.
