The brief introduction about natural stone honeycomb panels
What is natural stone honeycomb panels ?
Stone honeycomb panel is made of natural stone composited with high-quality aluminum honeycomb panel or fiberglass honeycomb panel as backing. It is a revolutionary application of exterior cladding and interior decoration with its unique advantages,as lightweight, design flexibility, easy to install and maintain, fireproof, save cost and so on.
Natural Stone Types
Granite: It is the hardest and most durable and needs low maintenance.
Limestone: It is one of the most diverse stones and has a wide variety of applications. It is used in building projects and constructing roads.
Marble: The classy appearance of the marble has made it the first choice material for architectural and interior projects.
Travertine: The stone of the Roman Colosseum. Recognizable for its pitted surface, travertine is a calcium-rich stone formed in natural springs.
Sandstone: It is a sedimentary rock composed of sand-size silicate grains.
Stone Finishes & Colors
Stone finishes include flamed, sandblasted, honed and polished, each providing its own unique aesthetic.
Flamed: The surface of the stone is super heated with a torch and then rapidly quenched to pop the crystals. This produces a rough textured finish.
Sandblasted: The surface is blasted with an abrasive sand to create a finish slightly rougher than honed.
Honed: The stone receives a smooth mat sanded finish. The surface is smooth but not reflective.
Polished: Diamond-faced pads wet polish the stone to a brilliant shine and a reflective finish. Polishing is available in marble and granite, but is not available in most limestones or sandstones.
