Pedra Hijau, also known as Bali Pedra or Bali Stone, is a natural stone with unique variations in color, texture, and mineral composition. Because it is a natural material, proper selection and quality control are essential to achieve a consistent and durable installation.
REAL EXAMPLES
Examples of Potential Quality Issues
The following images show examples of conditions that can occur when Pedra Hijau is supplied without adequate material selection and quality control. These issues may appear after installation and can affect the appearance and durability of your project.
01
Surface Crumbling & Weak Areas
Some pieces may contain areas with a weaker crystal or clay-rich composition. After installation, these areas can become loose, crumble, or develop surface defects.
02
Surface Defects and Pitting
Poor-quality or unsuitable pieces may show excessive pits, holes, soft areas, or surface deterioration. These defects can become more visible after installation and cleaning.
03
Excessive Porosity and Damage
Some stones may have higher porosity or internal weakness, making them more susceptible to damage during installation or use.
04
Uneven Color and Inconsistent Quality
Inconsistent material selection can result in tiles with different shades of green, grey, brown, or yellow, creating an uneven overall appearance.
05
Yellow or Brown Discoloration
Some discoloration can occur naturally within the stone, while other yellow or brown staining may develop during storage, handling, or exposure to oxygen.
06
Uneven Appearance After Installation
When tiles from different material selections are mixed without proper sorting, the finished pool or wall can have significant differences in color, texture, and surface quality.

THE RIGHT CHOICE
Choose the Right Pedra Hijau from the Beginning
Not all Pedra Hijau, Bali Pedra, or Bali Stone will have the same quality. Natural stone characteristics can vary depending on the quarry, material selection, cutting process, sorting, storage, and quality control.
At Pedrasverde, we carefully select and control our Pedra Hijau to provide consistent, high-quality natural stone for swimming pools, walls, water features, and other applications.
