What is Stone veneer? Stone and slate veneer is 100% natural stone. Its essentially an ultra thin, light and flexible stone tile. The technology and manufacturing process for this was created in Germany and the top layer of the veneer tile is natural stone backed with polyester resin to a fiberglass or cotton backing.
The advantages to using this format of natural stone are great, less wastage, little to no cracking and damage whilst handling the materials are no chipped edges and corners.
The standard tile size is large and with larger sheets available it is possible to clad furniture, vanity tops, kitchen units, doors etc to provide a natural stone finish in areas where previously this hasn’t been viable or practical.
Also the material is flexible so it can be applied directly to circular columns and radius corners without the need for a joint.
It is much easier to install in comparison to traditional stone tiles. It can be fixed by a carpenter, decorator, mason or DIY enthusiast with general woodworking tools and adhesives, no specialist stone masonry tools are required.
