Yes you need a polyurethane https://www.tilersforums.com/forums/tile-adhesive/ .. as water mixed adhesives will warp them..

Mapei do 2 suitable ones..

Granirapid or Elastorapid.

Both are a 2 component S2 https://www.tilersforums.com/forums/tile-adhesive/ for conglomerate stone and resin based tiles.

Pricing isn't discussed in the public section of the forums. If you can find a member on here that is near you, maybe you could contact them and ask them to call round and give you a price?
