Core Disadvantages of Excessive Flexibility

Flexibility is negatively correlated with building material performance: the greater the flexibility, the more serious the subsequent issues will be.

✕
Poor UV Resistance: Higher flexibility → more plastics used → lower UV resistance.
✕
Poor Wall Aesthetics: Higher flexibility → higher requirements for wall flatness → uneven wall surfaces become visible after application.
✕
Poor Fire Safety: Higher flexibility → more plastics used → lower fire rating → stronger odor and more toxic smoke.
SOFT STONE

4.0 Flexible Stone Coverings Scientific Solution

We first meet the core performance requirements of building materials, then adapt to the building's bending needs.

✓
Performance FIRST: UV resistance and fire rating reach top industry standards while maintaining flatness and sustainability.
✓
Optimal Flexibility: We optimize bending capability without creating performance loss from unnecessary excessive flexibility.

#Frequently asked questions

How can using our soft stone new material effectively reduce construction costs when compared with traditional stone and tile materials?
In addtion to the cost-effective price of our soft stone products, the ultra‑lightweight nature of this new material helps our clients reduce labour costs at every stage - transportation, on‑site handling, cutting, and installation. It shortens the constrction period and less labour are required for handling, therefore lower your budget significantly.
Does soft stone require sealing?
Soft stone does not require any sealing. It is a fully finished, product designed to withstand moisture and everyday use without any additional treatment.
Can soft stone products be used for both floor and wall applications?
Soft stones are not suitable for flooring due to their thin profile, but are ideal for facade cladding, interior walls, and ceilings.
Is soft stone waterproof?
Soft stone is waterproof and moisture resistant. However, treat the stone sheets like traditional tiles - if installing in areas exposed to water or moisture, such as bathrooms or exterior spaces, we recommend applying waterproofing to the substrate.
Is soft stone fire rated?
Soft stone is Group 1 fire rated.
Does soft stone fade in the sun?
Soft stone won’t fade in the sun and is backed by a 20-year warranty.
Can panels be easily cut to size?
Soft stone’s thin, lightweight design makes on-site cutting and handling quick and easy. For perfect edging, electric circular saw is highly recommended.
What adhesive should I use?
We recommend using high-quality tile adhesives from Mapei or Davco, both available at most local adhesive suppliers.
