 | GorgeouStone is a "GREEN" building product. This light weight precast stone contains natural minerals and clays which make it fireproof and provide insulation values and sound proofing qualities. Other ingredients include recycled glass, sand and various pozzolans, portland cement and water soluble chemistry which make it environmentally friendly to cast on site. GorgeouStone is 'freeze/thaw' resistant due to it's low porosity characteristics. It is also resistant to man made and natural contaminating elements because of it's negligible absorption of atmospheric pollutants.
|  | GorgeouStone weighs half as much as conventional architectural precast cultured stone. It has compression and flexural strengths that are as high and higher than most ornamental architectural concrete. The lightweight/high strength of this cutting edge building material is achieved without the use of air or foam in manufacturing. GorgeouStone panels are so light and strong that, when installed as exterior cladding, they surpass the New Building Codes adapted by the State of Florida after Hurricane Andrew. Adhered according to specifications, these exterior panels surpass all Dade County Wind Shear and Wind Suction Tests.
|  | GorgeouStone is sealed with a 20 year warranteed, impregnating sealer which penetrates the stone and creates a chemical bond that permanently attaches to the cement. This sealer is VOC compliant and can earn vital Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design (LEED) credits given by the U.S. Green Building Council for both new and existing construction projects
|  | GorgeouStone cuts as easily as drywall or wood. A segmented diamond blade cuts through it like butter. No need for a Stone Mason for installation. A Trim Carpenter can get the job done with the ease of framing and finishing wood. The material is literally glued to any wall surface or substrate. It can be easily mitered, stapled, drilled, glued. filed and caulked. Unlike most of the stuccos, EIFS systems and paints on the market today ~ ~
GorgeouStone needs no maintenance!
