Fibreglass backing

This can be used in both indoor and outdoor applications such as wall panelling, and cladding on the building’s vertical and horizontal surfaces not previously considered for stone due to weight and/or flaking issues. Fibre glass-backed veneers are suitable for the following applications as well – Doors & Cabinets, Furniture, Trim & Backsplashes, Marine & RV, Kitchens, Bathrooms, and Flooring.

Fabric backing

fabric-backed veneers are extra flexible and they can be used in places where extra flexibility is needed such as curved surfaces, phone and laptop back covers and, wooden surfaces.

Technical Specifications

Sketch Natural flexible stones are light weight ultra-thin sheets with total thickness of 1 to 2 mm. It is used for both interior and exterior and especially where bending to a curved surface is required. These veneer slate sheets are remarkable for smooth finish and texture. Its non-slippery, stain removable and non-porous surface gives a glow and shiny finish. Veneer sheets are durable, wear proof, moisture, mould and heat resistant, requires very little maintenance. Stone veneer products are available in various designer patterns and ranges. Its smooth finishing offers a classically elegant feel to the applicable area. Based at Melbourne Australia.

Flexible Slate Stone Veneer can be bent or flexed to a radius of 360mm along the length. The width is not recommended for bending. Due to the nature of the different thicknesses of the individual items, the degree of radius varies per item. Fabric backing sheets are more suitable for such kinds of installations including edge bending operations in the woodworking industry.
