Modular concrete wine cellars The Stone Cellar Company
brings together 150 years of shared experience of all the necessary aspects of a successful wine cellar installation; concrete manufacture, site survey & sales, and groundwork & installation - combined with an added passion for wine. Positioned in a unique market because all aspects of the business, from original design through to final installation, are under one roof. Albion Architectural Concrete has been involved in the design and manufacture of high quality concrete products, including modular wine cellars, for nearly 30 years. Alan Sivyer has a vast wealth of groundwork experience, including the installation of cellars, both in the UK and mainland Europe, and was instrumental in devising the unique design of our new hexagonal cellar, including the development of a high-tech guaranteed waterproofing/tanking technology. They came together to form the Stone Cellar Company, using combined experience to offer the finest self-ventilating wine storage cellar available in the UK and USA.

These qualities were combined with a high-quality, no compromise design, more space and a light, airy feel inside the cellar. Due to the modular nature of construction; if required, it is possible to design a cellar of almost any size and shape to meet exact requirements.
Features of the Standard Hexagonal Cellar: • 2850mm wide x 2500mm deep (can be varied)
• Capacity for up to 2000 bottles • White limestone finish • Easy entry and access • Entry via double trap doors set into
