Let the elegance of Ōamaru Stone enhance your next project.

As professionals in the construction industry, you understand the importance of using high-quality, naturally occurring materials in your projects. That's why we want to introduce you to Ōamaru Stone - our architectural limestone sourced responsibly from the abundant, natural limestone deposits found in our family-owned quarry: Parkside Quarry, located in Ōamaru, North Otago. Our family has been involved in farming and quarrying for six generations, resulting in the establishment of Parkside Quarry, Parkside Limeworks, and Ōamaru Stone.

When it comes to constructing modern and sophisticated buildings, you know that the material used makes a significant impact. Since the 1860s, limestone has been quarried from various sites around Otago to construct some of New Zealand's most iconic buildings, including the Oamaru Opera House. Today, Parkside Quarry is the only remaining quarry in Otago, making our Ōamaru Stone limestone a unique and desirable choice for architects and builders alike. Our state-of-the-art facilities utilise advanced machinery, including our 5 Axis CNC Machine, the largest of its kind in New Zealand and one of only two in Australasia. Plus, our low-emission production process and zero-waste policy reflect our commitment to sustainability and environmental responsibility.

When it comes to constructing elegant and sophisticated buildings, choosing the right material is crucial. That's why we invite you to turn to Ōamaru Stone for high-quality, responsibly sourced limestone for your next project. Contact us today to learn more about our products and services.
