Some people think with Stone Cladding you just put it on a wall…..WRONG.

As the video clip shows there are no ends to the benefits and opportunities of Norstone stone cladding. Truly, our products are only restricted by the skilled tiler installing or the  Architects/Interior  designers imagination. There are endless possibilities.

In this amazing example, the Norstone Aksent™ basalt stone cladding tiled panels are machine cut with precision, giving the installers the possibility to adapt it to any project requirement. Secret doors, that may hide that prized Wine Cellar, Library…the options are endless. Special hinges are used and in stalled to take the weight. The look becomes seamless.

After viewing the clip, you might wonder why has this not been done before...

We don’t know…but what an innovation, especially when you don’t want a door to interrupt the flow of a Norstone wall.

Design is about innovation. That's what we love to encourage, hence the reason to share the video clip.

Enjoy and marvel!

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!

If you would like to see samples or potentially get a quote for your project in either Expanz™ Platinum or Slimline Rock Panel Off-white Quartz, please browse our samples and quotes pages and get ready – the 7th of May is just around the corner…

Norstone prides itself that it supplies stone cladding products to both retail and commercial clients alike. One of our most recent projects shown in these pictures is for a large supermarket complex that had a combination of both Ochre XLS and our new Aksent Ebony natural stone cladding.

We are delighted with the results; Ochre XLS and Aksent Ebony cladding panel systems have been paired in  striking fashion to provide a beautiful façade for this busy commercial shopping Centre.

The project, like most our larger projects, was specified by architects who obviously saw that this beautiful combination of the two stone cladding products would work.

The corner detail of Norstone’s cladding products was an important feature given the large number of external corners that can be seen on these columns extending skyways.

Positioned in the West Midlands in Brierley Hill, the finished façade is there for everyone to see - this combination may work for you too!.
