Airtec Stone offers many design options for creating high-quality natural stone façades with numerous types of stone, different sizes and shaped units. Even large panels with an area of up to 7.7 m² can be hooked into the aluminium substructure without any visible fixing elements. The panels consist of a top layer of stone with a thickness of 5 to 10 millimetres on a lightweight concrete base panel not more than 19 millimetres thick, which makes them up to 60 per cent lighter than solid stone slabs. They can also be installed overhead using invisible fixings.

Modern architectural façades feature three-dimensional shapes. Such designs are easily realised using our architectural elements made from natural stone: shaped units of storey-height in lengths of up to 3.50 m.

The special material properties of the composite natural stone panel make it possible to create shaped units with the same appearance and a much reduced self-weight. As a result, three-dimensional preformed units such as corners, angles or U-sections can be produced to achieve a monolithic effect. This involves first mitring the composite panels and securing them without a visible joint, using a bonded press fit. Cantilever panels up to 400 mm in length can be attached to an anchoring panel.  This method also allows the façades of listed buildings to be faithfully restored.
