Bordillo Espliego: angle-cut concrete with a hand-worked stone texture
A smooth curb looks cold in a traditional garden, and natural stone blows the budget. The Bordillo Espliego strikes the middle ground with an angle-cut finish that imitates hand-worked stone, in two tones that suit both classic and contemporary gardens.
✅ Key benefits
Angle-cut finish: the relief catches raking light and gives the edge a presence that a flat curb can't achieve.
Two style options: Antracita for cool, minimalist settings; Beige for traditional homes.
Highly cost-effective pallet: 108 units per pallet, equal to 54 linear meters in a single delivery.
Manageable weight: 10.51 kg per piece, lighter than a conventional solid curb.
Standard 50 cm format: calculating per linear meter comes out at exactly two pieces.
🏗️ Recommended applications
Delimiting flower beds and planting areas.
Edging for paths and pedestrian access routes.
Separating lawn from gravel or bark areas.
Building raised beds in patios.
Finishing landscaped areas next to paving.

🧰 Installation
Mark out the layout with string and dig a trench about 12 cm deep.
Prepare a 5 cm base of dry mortar and compact it.
Place the pieces with the cut face toward the visible side and tap them into place with a rubber mallet.
Keep a minimal, constant joint between pieces so the cut finish follows the line.
Back-fill behind with mortar and let it set for 24 hours before loading the bed.

💡 Pro tip: the angle-cut finish has a good face and a back face. Before laying the first section, decide from where the curb will be seen and place all the pieces in the same direction; if you change the orientation halfway along, the shadow of the relief breaks up the line and it is far more noticeable than it seems on paper.
