Monostrato Vulcanico dell'Etna

R13 anti-slip outdoor flooring

We are proud to work with one of nature’s most extraordinary and fascinating treasures: Mount Etna. This imposing volcano, a symbol of strength and beauty, provides us with a unique and valuable resource: lava stone, a material of extraordinary quality.

The natural properties of lava stone and Fimas technology give the Monostrato Vulcanico dell’Etna (Etna volcanic monolayer paving) outstanding resistance to the most extreme weather conditions, while preserving a refined appearance that evokes the magnificence of volcanic nature.

Mount Etna is not just a supplier, it is a partner that allows us to offer our customers the very best of Sicily.




The MONOSTRATO VULCANICO DELL'ETNA is an anti-slip outdoor flooring, designed and manufactured by FIMAS for over 40 years with technologically advanced machinery and systems. It meets all the technical requirements that the law now sets for outdoor flooring (CE marking - UNI EN 13748-2). Thanks to its strength, its colors, its refined finishes and its versatility, it can be described as a timeless product, far from passing trends, a valid alternative to natural stone.

Strength and Durability: FIMAS Monostrato Vulcanico slabs are built to withstand rain, sun and frost, which makes them ideal for outdoor areas and public spaces. They are unaffected by the passing of time and stay flawless even in high-traffic environments.

Unique Appearance: Our slabs tell the story of an ancient land, with shades and textures that reflect the power and natural beauty of the volcano. They are available in a range of styles and finishes, making it possible to create elegant outdoor spaces with strong visual impact.

Sustainability: Fimas uses technologies that produce high-quality paving while also respecting the environment, and is committed to promoting sustainable practices in order to reduce the environmental impact of its production process.

Excellent Performance: The natural properties of lava stone and Fimas technology deliver higher performance than other materials, ensuring safe, long-lasting paving for every type of outdoor space.
