Norstone’s early and ongoing success is built on a number of factors which combine to deliver an unbeatable combo of superior product and outstanding technical expertise.

First and foremost, our products speak for themselves. We rigorously control the quality and provenance of our materials and the entire manufacturing process, from quarry to finished product, is managed directly at our modern production facility in South East Asia. There are cheaper alternatives, but you cannot substitute our premium quality without compromising the end result.

Not content with sitting on our laurels, we constantly look to deliver new and innovative ways to use natural stone products with ease and simplicity. Our passion is to introduce the beauty and impressive benefits of natural stone so you can better understand it’s amazing inherent attributes and how it will enhance your environment.

Thirdly, the installation methods and corner systems we have developed over the years have received very positive feedback from professional installers around the world. We back up our 360º commitment with ongoing support and we also assist with project scope to make sure that the right materials and substrates are chosen, and your stone cladding project turns out perfect. Within the UK, we also provide substantial warranties when the cladding is installed to our technical specification with the appropriate fixing materials.

Finally, Norstone are also driven by firm commitments to both labour welfare and the environmental impact of our products:

• Norstone will never source natural stone from environmentally sensitive areas such as river systems, abides by all government regulations regarding the quarry of natural stone products, and is fully licensed to deal in the quarry and subsequent manufacture of natural stone based products.
• Norstone natural stone cladding products are environmentally friendly, inert and fully recyclable as well as energy efficient in production.
• Norstone employs only qualified professionals in its quarries and factories, and firmly stands against the exploitation of child labour.

Norstone’s unique rock panel system has been installed in some of the world’s most prestigious architectural projects and is often specified by architects and commercial designers. Our track record demonstrates that our cladding panels deliver outstanding results in a myriad of projects, from commercial environments to high end residences.

The superior ease and speed of installation combined with natural stone of the highest quality make Norstone the stone cladding of choice for architects, designers and builders all over the world.

We’ve already proven our pedigree with outstanding performance and innovation since we started in 2003, and as a forward-thinking company, we have many new ideas and design concepts in the pipeline. We’re very excited for the development of Norstone in the years ahead – we hope you will join us on our journey.

On the 7th of May we will take delivery of two brand new arrivals that have been generating lots of interest in our other territories. Expanz™ 3D cladding plank system, exclusively in platinum lava stone (shown above) is joined by an additional colourway for our hugely popular slimline SL Rock Panel range – elegant OFF-WHITE (photo below) is arriving to complement the existing ochre and charcoal styles.

Despite the difficult period we are living through, we all need to focus on the future and better days ahead, which is exactly what our all new ranges can provide! We have seen a huge demand for our slimline cladding, as it offers excellent coverage and a stylish finish at a price point that is suited to those looking to keep their budget down – ideal for large surface coverage, we can’t wait to see how the all new OFF-WHITE quartz finish will be adopted and rolled out in upcoming projects for both commercial spaces and luxurious residences. To find out more about the advantages of Norstone SL (slimline) Rock Panel™ system, please visit the product page directly.

Expanz™ 3D is an all new format, that has much of the same framework as the recently introduced Planc™ range of modular cladding, however Expanz™ is designed to have randomised depths and heights, giving a highly original façade with 3D projections that truly stand out, both figuratively and literally! Expanz™ will be available exclusively in Platinum Lava Stone, one of the most popular finishes we currently supply and a conversation starter in its own right. As you can see from the photo below, Expanz™ 3D is a taking stone cladding to a new dimension!
