Slate-Lite

Slate-Lite Datatsheet PDF

Slate-Lite has a 100% natural stone surface and, thanks to its fiberglass backing, is extremely robust and suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. Its thin overall thickness of only about 1.5 mm also makes it extremely lightweight, easy to work with on almost any surface and can even be laid around curves if required. Use it for stone veneers both indoors and outdoors as well as for wall cladding, flooring or as a backsplash in your kitchen. Even extraordinary living environments in stone in wet areas such as bathrooms or showers are possible with Slate-Lite!

Slate-Lite is an innovative real stone veneer consisting of an ultra-thin natural stone layer and a carrier reinforced with glass fibres or cotton. We have developed a special process to produce many wafer-thin slabs from the most beautiful stone blocks in the world. Each of these slabs is unique and handcrafted in over 12 processing steps.
Despite its lightness, Slate-Lite stone veneer retains the feel and look of a solid stone slab. At the same time, our stone veneer is only approx. 0.06 in thin and even flexible! Discover currently more than 70 different decors with unique colours and patterns in our stone veneer range: We offer not only slate, but also limestones, sandstones and even marble for your individual building project!
