Alta Skiferbrudd, established in 1933, is the main producer of Alta Quartzite, a natural building material, quarried in the mountains surrounding the Alta Fjord in Norway, far north in the polar circle. Alta Quartzite has a pleasant grey-green appearance and a natural soft luster. Being a riven material, it has colour and texture variations that lend themselves to modern architecture. Alta Quartzite is used for roofing, paving, staircases, cladding: interior as well exterior. Alta Quartzite is naturally non-slip and extremely hard wearing.
