How to choose an artificial stone cladding?

1. Appearance The more artificial stone veneer color conversion and halftone, the more natural and vivid will look tiling surface. Stone should not look like a painted concrete tiles, all of whose elements are the same color, texture and size. In nature it is difficult to find a few stones of the same color, so the surest way to get a natural lining ordered more than one color of the stone, but a mixture of two or three of matching colors. 2. The body of an artificial stone artificial stone should not contain large filler particles (> 5 mm), as in this case the strength of stone will be uneven and likely occurrence of cracks on the surface. The size of the filler can be viewed on saw cut stone. Often, the stands extreme sawed stones, and one can easily observe the size of the fillers and their distribution in the mass of stone. Distribution of fillers in a mass of stone is preferable: small solid filler (sand or marble chips) are closer to the front side and create a strong protective layer and a light filler (mostly concrete block) is located closer to the back of the stone and makes it easier. 3. Technology for manufacturing artificial stone is preferable to choose a stone, made on Russian technology developed to meet the Russian climatic conditions. All the arguments that imported technology adapted to our conditions, is highly questionable, due to the fact. That such technology is designed for imported raw materials and import of industrial culture. When in the imported technology is used domestic raw materials, complete identity of the process is unlikely. The use of imported raw materials significantly increases the cost of production. 4. Packing stone stone must be sold in a convenient package. If it is necessary to deliver to the area where there are no forklifts, then in boxes, which can elevate one person, but if it must be delivered to the construction site, and even in another city, then in boxes on pallets, where the stone will be better protected during transportation. 5. Decorative elements are the perfect complement for a stone is a decorative items such as rounds of windows and doors, rusty, keystones, etc. If a manufacturer's range has all the elements that match in color and texture to the selected stones, then your object will be the most harmonious and unique .
