Yes, stone is naturally fire-resistant and does not burn, melt, or release toxic fumes when exposed to high temperatures. This makes it an excellent material for fireplaces, chimneys, structural walls, and commercial buildings where fire safety is a priority. Stones such as granite, limestone, and sandstone can withstand extreme heat without losing structural integrity. Because of this, stone masonry often exceeds fire safety requirements in building regulations. Using stone can help slow the spread of fire and protect structural components, offering additional safety for occupants. Its fire-resistant properties, combined with durability and low maintenance, make stone a reliable choice for both residential and commercial construction.
