GENERAL INFO

APPLICATIONS:

Architectural, Interior & Exterior, Doors & Cabinets, Furniture, Trim & Backsplash, Marine & RV, Kitchens, Bathrooms and Flooring.

Flexistone is a natural stone veneer that can be joined to many indoor and outdoor surfeces. Flexistone's light weight and flexibility is appropriate for many applications such as wall panelling, columns, cladding on buildings and vertical or horizontal surfaces not previously considered  for stone due to weight and/or flaking.

 

STRUCTURE AND BACKING:

Flexistone is a natural stone veneer lamination with a smooth black backing. It is produced with a fleece backing in black color.

 

COLOR VARIATIONS:

Flexistone is a natural stone veneer so color and texture variations are the property of the material. Texture variation in stone are an inherant part of the natural beauty of quarried material. Stone veneer can not be guaranteed to macth with each lot, so it is recomended that material should be accepted in lots of 20, 40 and 50 sheets to match. Large orders will be executed in bundles of 25 with 2-3 matching lots in each bundle. Special orders of large lots are also available.

USES FOR LAMINATION & DIRECT VIEWING:

Flexistone is used for wall panelling on MDF and HDF boards, furniture, woodworking machines, round column cladding and numerous interior and exterior applications. Stone veneer can be glued directly to concrete floors and walls with the help of epoxy and other EP glues.

 

TRANSLUCENT FLEXISTONE:

Flexistone Veneer may be used in illumination applications such as lamp shades or back light applications with our translucent variaties. . Beautiful light can shine through our unique translucency applications.

 

LIGHT, HEAT & TEMPERATURE RESISTANCE:

Stone veneer has a natural stone surface layer, which acts as a UV light or UV ray protector and will resist high sun conditions for years. When glued to a substraight Flexistone veneer will handle high thermal contraction and/or expansion of most standard construction matetrials. Flexistone veneer will handle both high temperature and freezing without cracking.

 

SUBSTRAITS:

Flexistone can be applied to MDF, HDF, boards, styrofoam sheets, melamine, concrete, brick, concrete blocks & slabs, mortar paltered walls, drywall, plywood, acrylic and other types of plastic sheets.

TOOLS FOR CUTTING:

Diamond blades used for marble and stone cutting can be used for cutting Flexistone veneer. Metal cutting tools also can be used to cut the stone veneer. Any standard carbide or diamond saw blade will cut Flexistone as well.

WEIGHT OF FLEXISTONE VENEER:

The weight is approximately 1.300 - 1.600 kg per square meter.

 

CURVATURE & BENDING:

Flexistone veneer can be bent with the same flexibility as plastic sheet products. The backing ysed gives it enough strength and flexibility to be bent in concave and convext formes or arched or radial forms depending on the nature of curve. Flexistone veneer can be bent or flexed to a radius of 380mm along the 1200mm length. The 600mm width will also have a slight flex to it, but is not recommended for bending. Due to the nature of the different thickness of individual products, the degree of radius varies per item. We recommend testing the flex of teh considered item prior to final installation.
