About Us

Australian Porphyry Stone is owned and operated by the Ives Family who have vast experience in producing high quality Porphyry Stone from our leases at Irvinebank (west of Cairns) where this high quality volcanic stone is structured in sheets, ranging from 10mm to 1000mm thick, with colours ranging from earth tone reds, green, blue and greys.

Porphyry stone is oil and salt resistant and is ideal for wet and coastal areas. Australian Porphyry stone is hard wearing and Porphyry has been used for centuries for exterior surfaces mainly for its hardness and non slip properties. It is ideal for walling, cobblestones and guillotined stone, not to forget our random stone, (crazy pave ) products which we manufacture at our factory in Herberton.

Australian Porphyry Stone Pty Ltd is the leader in the quarrying and manufacture of Australian Porphyry stone. All our staff are local residents of the Atherton Tablelands where we provide onsite training to meet our stringent quality assurance standards for our valued customers’ finished product. Having continuously operated since 1989 we are proud of our history of providing employment opportunities in Australia.
