Introduction
StoneLite™ panels are innovative composite wall panels that combine natural stone veneer with an aluminum honeycomb backing. This design enhances the strength and reduces the weight of traditional stone cladding, making it a superior choice for construction projects.
Specifications
The panels weigh only 3.3 lbs./sq. ft. (16 kg/sq. m.), significantly lighter than traditional stone, allowing for faster installation. Standard panel sizes are 4’-0” x 8’-0” with a thickness of 15/16” or 9/16”. They are available in various natural stones like granite, marble, limestone, and sandstone.
Performance and Testing
StoneLite™ panels have undergone rigorous testing, including impact resistance, fire tests, and hurricane simulations. They are proven to withstand seismic loads and have a high flexural strength, making them suitable for various environmental conditions.
Installation and Cost-Effectiveness
The lightweight nature of the panels allows for quick installation without heavy equipment, reducing labor costs. They can be attached using mechanical anchors or adhesives, and are suitable for both new constructions and renovations.
Applications
StoneLite™ panels are used in a variety of settings, including exterior cladding, interior walls, ceilings, and even in elevators and marine craft. Their lightweight and durable nature make them ideal for projects where traditional stone would be impractical.
