PU Stone

PU is a wall decoration board made by foaming high-density polyurethane material with a special aluminum mold, and then the surface is treated with anti-corrosion, wear-resistant, flame-retardant, and UV-resistant functions. It is a cross-border new material that uses the well-known material to restore the decoration material of real stone.

Translucent stone

It is a new type of composite material, made of polymer materials. Like artificial stone, it uses translucent resin. The pattern is the same as artificial jade, and the formula is basically the same as crystal stone. Translucent marble is cast with unsaturated resin, aluminum hydroxide and other auxiliary materials and molds.

Rammed earth board

Rammed earth board is a board with a texture similar to rammed earth wall.

This stone is as thin as paper, bendable, light-transmissive, and has a variety of shapes, which completely subverts your perception of stone. It uses natural slate and sandstone and other natural stratified stones, and uses modern nanotechnology to peel them off in layers. It completely retains the texture and texture of natural stone, and is the crystallization of nature’s magic and contemporary technology.
