Edstein Creative Stone (J.J Edstein & Sons Pty Ltd) was established in 1896 and has traded continuously since this date. Today the company bears little resemblance to the small family run monumental masonry company that commenced in 1896 but has retained many of the skills and traditional values.

The business mix has changed dramatically over the past 10 years and now the Kitchen Benchtops division makes up 70% of the companies turn over with 30% still remaining in the traditional Monumental products.

Both facilities have up to date showrooms with a large range of products on display for our customers to view and choose from.
