Intruduction
Glowstone is a synthetic aggregate, based on Photoluminescent pigment and synthetic resin. When exposed to light sources, the photoluminescent pigment within Glowstone becomes chemically excited and will afterglow (i.e. glow in the dark), initially very strongly, then reducing slowly overnight. The glow is best seen in a dark area, where ambient light sources such as streetlights and moonlight are absent. |

Glowstone is for use in Concrete, Pavers and Terrazzo products as an exposed aggregate.
Glowstone enhances safety by marking the pathway in Low Light Level conditions.
In daylight the Glowstone has an Off-white colour and can be supplied in after-glow colours of
Yellow-green and blue-green. |

Features:
Glowstone is easy to use in an homogenous mix or as a surface topping for concrete paths, steps and terrazzo floors. Glowstone can be used as an additive into pebble paving or loose laid into gravel paths. Glowstone looks and acts like quartz, yet is able to glow in the dark to provide that special night-time effect.

Luminance Strength of Glowstone:
Glowstone can be manufactured in a range of Photoluminescent pigment strengths. Grades with higher pigment content have a higher cost but also have stronger initial after-glow and will also have a longer duration of glow.
