Novum Wall Alpine is a machine-set modular retaining-wall system with a detailed stacked-stone face, manufactured and handled at the Paton yard in Kirknewton.
The Novum Wall system
Novum Wall Alpine is a machine-set modular retaining-wall system combining wet-cast concrete with a detailed natural-stone face. The blocks are stacked to form retaining and landscape walls, and the Alpine texture gives a packed, stacked-stone appearance across the finished face.
It is supplied through Paton’s Bonnie Blocks for residential, commercial and civil engineering landscaping, with dedicated technical resources available to support properly designed walls.
Appearance and construction
Novum Wall is built from wet-cast concrete units with modelled stone faces, so the finished wall reads as natural stone rather than a plain block wall. Because the system is machine-set, blocks are placed and aligned to a consistent coursing line during installation.
