Retama Kerb: a straight concrete edge in Caliza tone
When a garden is all straight lines, any rustic-looking kerb feels out of place. The Retama Kerb gives a clean edge, with no imitation texture, in a neutral Caliza tone that suits both a warm façade and a modern one, in a 50 × 25 × 4.5 cm, 12.35 kg piece that one person can handle.
✅ Key advantages
Minimalist look: a smooth face and defined edges, made for contemporary projects.
25 cm usable height: enough to hold back bed soil or path gravel with no build-up needed.
Corner pieces: matching pieces exist to handle internal and external angles cleanly.
Manageable weight: 12.35 kg per unit, layable by one worker.
Versatile Caliza tone: works with light paving and with dense planting alike.
🏗️ Recommended applications
Edging paths and pedestrian trails.
Retaining flower beds and borders.
Dividing lawn from gravel areas.
Enclosing planted areas in patios and terraces.
Building low raised beds.

🧰 Installation
Mark out the line with string and dig a trench about 12 cm deep, slightly wider than the piece.
Pour a dry mortar base and lightly compact it.
Set the pieces on edge, aligning them to the string and tapping with a rubber mallet.
Check the level every three or four pieces, not just at the end of the run.
Pack both faces with mortar and let it set before backfilling the path.

💡 Professional tip: at 25 cm tall, it's tempting to bury the piece shallow to gain more retaining height. Don't: bury at least 8 cm. A 4.5 cm-thick kerb buried only a little tips over the first time a mower goes past or soil pushes against it after heavy watering, and resetting it costs more than doing it right the first time.
