Flexible sandstone is here!
Sandstone creates a warm and friendly ambiance, while also displaying a touch of luxury. This is why sandstone buildings dominate the urban landscape of some of our oldest cities. However, due to cost and practicality, sandstone has rarely been used for interior design. This can all change now thanks to the availability of X-Stone a special procedure for creating a thin flexible sandstone at only 1-3 mm thick has been developed and perfected after years of research.
This process allows large sheets of stone up to 2730 x 1100mm to be produced. This sandstone weighs on average 3-5 kg per m2; it is very easily mouldable and can be shaped to suit most requirements.
Applying a special stone sealer guarantees the resistance to water and forms a very durable surface. Installation on site is quiet, generally dust free and quick.Where possible this can also be done off-site. The exceptional technical characteristics and the flexible nature of this sandstone saves valuable construction time as well as costs and opens up avenues not possible until now.
Real Sandstone – Flexible and Malleable:
This natural stone adapts to nearly any contour – and this is seamless.Walls; profiles; pillars; tables; corners; bends... any object can be made into “stone”, regardless of the object's material – concrete, wood, plaster or plastic. Mouldings and corners can be produced by heating the X-Stone to ‘mould’ to any shape required. This fireproof natural product can be pasted and fixed as tiles on walls and on the floor. Or with a little skill the joints can disappear to give the effect of one massive sheet of stone to do so, the joints are heated and closed. As there are several deposits, X-Stone sandstone is available in many different, wonderful colours. Sandstone is of timeless beauty. This innovative product is light, flexible, malleable and easy to use. It’s use is only limited to the imagination.
