Blue Credit Union - perfectly Planc™

1/3/2022

0 Comments

 
Norstone has recently supplied our new Lavastone Graphite Planc™ product to the Blue Credit Union in Cheynne, Wyoming in the USA.

The architects were Open Studio. The brilliant use of the Norstone Graphite Planc stone cladding, both internally and externally creates a beautiful harmonious work environment for all the employees and customers alike.

Combined with some attractive dark metals and offset with warm wooden canopies and panelling, the overall look is very modern and stylish.

The Lavastone Graphite Planc, with its soft textured grey tones,  is eye-catching during the day and night as seen in the photos above.
 
The stone cladding which is Linea in style and seamless to boot gives the building a slick, smooth appearance that also instills confidence and solidity to the company's new corporate headquarters.

No pun intended, but I think you must give us Credit for this product and innovative styling.

Norstone, the leading stone cladding experts.

Featured stone cladding range: Norstone PLANC™

Picture

Graphite Lava Stone takes our popular Platinum lava stone and applies a honed finish to the surface, resulting in a colour that is slightly darker and a surface that is smooth to the touch yet retains the unique surface features that make lava stone products stand out. We recommend sealing honed finishes as you'll find it hard to keep your hands off the silky smooth surface!

Norstone Planc Series Large Format Veneer is made from 100% natural stone, meticulously sourced from hand-picked quarries and fabricated to the highest standards for the most demanding markets around the globe.

Lavastone features Platinum and Graphite.

Basalt is available in
Grey Basalt and Ebony Basalt.

Quartz is available in
Silver Grey Quartz.

NEW: PLANC™ Platinum Lava stone Reveals

15/7/2021

PLANC™ Reveals: A standout stone cladding addition for 2021

After successfully launching the Charcoal Basalt window reveals, we are now looking to launch the Lavastone Platinum Reveal…. crafted from the same uniquely beautiful natural lava stone as our PLANC™ panel cladding system.

Coming in slightly shorter at 1000mm in length, however you have the choice of either 30mm/50mm thickness so it can create some interesting effects with thicker bottoms (to create a window sill effect) or even  all 30mm thin or 50mm thick depending on the look you are aiming for. The depth is 150mm so depending on the overall depth of your window frame opening these can be flush to the cladding wall, or they can project out for a really dynamic, 3D effect (as shown in the slideshow above).

With the beauty of the lavastone also comes versatility. These Window Reveals can be easily wet sawed to fit any window installation.

With our expanding range of reveals it is now possible to mix and match… have the vertical Charcoal Rock Panels that return into the window with now choices for the horizontals as well in either basalt or lavastone.

This new product is most revealing... Its worth looking into!


These new lavastone reveals are coming very soon, available to order now so please contact us to express interest.

Planc™ stone cladding in Aksent™ style? Yes!

17/5/2021

0 Comments

 
Picture
There are virtually no limits to the application of Norstone and its stone cladding products.

An example of this is shown on this project. With a little imagination, if you want a large format version of the Platinum Aksent™,  this can be easily achieved by installing Platinum Planc™ panels in the same format as the Aksent. The design uses Aksent™ for the smaller, higher walls, and then the lower, larger walls are clad in Planc™ with a pattern that matches the Aksent panel above - as both cladding systems are using our exclusive Platinum lava stone, the finished look is perfectly matched.

On a technical level, the look is achieved by having the panels sit slightly proud of each other, made by making the bedding thickness greater…ensuring that no compressed bedding thickness is greater than 18mm. The loose pieces of Planc™ are arranged in the same pattern as Aksent panels, and...
 Hey presto... Aksent™ cladding tiles now in a really large format layout!

You can do this with the complete range of Planc™ cladding …Platinum Lavastone, Graphite Lavastone, Silver Grey Quartz, Grey Basalt and Ebony Basalt. The Planc™ sets used measure 800mm in length by 20mm thick, with varying heights of 140/80/60mm.
Picture

With this fully modular panel system you have unlimited choice…

Norstone Expanz™ 3D silver grey Quartz
Norstone is excited in launching its new product range Expanz 3D™, which has seen huge success in our other markets. It will consist of two stunning lava stone types, namely Graphite and Platinum. The Graphite is honed which makes the appearance slightly darker than the crisp, light Platinum Expanz™ finish. The other Expanz™ is the Silver grey quartzite which has a very smooth look and lots of shading variety as the picture above shows.

The Expanz™ Range has a textured, 3D volumetric finish, and the tiled pattern emphasises its linear style. Its profile is generous and provides a solid but contemporary feel.

The stylish contemporary grey look has frequently been specified by Architects and Interior designers,  and now the choice has been just expanded with the release of these all new Norstone cladding products. They are 100% natural stone and machine cut to give the exacting standards as you expect from Norstone.

Order a sample today of this new and exciting range of stone cladding products.

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.
Picture
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…

PLANC™: Streamlined Natural Stone Cladding with creative freedom

15/4/2020

0 Comments

Stone Cladding expertise acquired through experience

Norstone have been a leading manufacturer and retailer of quality natural stone veneer cladding systems since 2003. Our market-leading panels, along with finger jointed corner systems have proven to be an incredibly popular choice for both homeowners, architects and civil / commercial projects alike.

As the years have passed, so has our range evolved. From our original, classic Rock Panels™, to our super sleek, honed Aksent™ panels, we have innovated within the stone cladding marketplace time and time again. Recently, across our major retail markets (Australia, USA, UK) we have introduced with great reception new materials and finishes, of which the beautiful natural Lava Stone has proven to be a show-stopping, conversation starter whenever it has been used.

Unique stone cladding designs with PLANC™

So, what else could we develop to fulfil our client’s requirements and exceed expectations? Well, we answered the call of more creative freedom with the introduction of PLANC™, our loose stone plank system. Available in highly desirable shades of monochrome from silver quartz to deepest black ebony basalt, PLANC™ is also a perfect canvas for our hugely popular Lava Stone finishes, available in Platinum and Graphite colourways. Lava stone, which is formed from molten lava that cools slowly, has a truly unique surface texture with interesting bubbling,  pitting and colour textures.

The true beauty for those seeking a unique, signature look is the complete flexibility the PLANC™ system provides; you can easily pick and choose individual plank strips and combine them as needed. The large format PLANC™ stone rows are all uniformly sized (with two narrow and one wide strip per set: 60mm/80mm/140mm x 800mm long), allowing designers to mix and match the colours and finishes and create coherent, stylish patterns should they wish to. We have seen graduated strips, vertical bands, symmetrical, asymmetrical or staggered patterns from creative designers & architects

We have seen some stunning installations of PLANC™, from modernist villas and smart LA residences, to commercial feature walls, fireplace surrounds or even kitchen backsplashes.

PLANC™ Cladding: precision engineered for streamlined install

Norstone PLANC™ large format stone cladding strips are made from 100% natural stone, meticulously sourced from hand-picked quarries and fabricated at our factory in Vietnam to the highest standards for the most demanding markets around the globe. PLANC™ cladding can be used on both internal and external projects, making it suitable for wet areas and also freeze/thaw applications.

We have designed and manufactured PLANC™ to be a highly calibrated system, best set in a dry fit marble style installation without grout joints over flat vertical surfaces. It can also be laid in vertical arrangements, and is also suitable for a more standard, grout joint look where desired. PLANC™ is also designed to allow for easy corner installations, for more information please read about PLANC™ corners.

With lava stone finishes in particular, it is advisable to consider pre-sealing PLANC™ stone strips prior to installation as this will greatly reduce the amount of maintenance and care of the stone cladding over its lifetime – additionally it makes cleaning  off installation mess such as excess adhesive a much more straightforward process. We recommend that PLANC™ cladding strips should be sealed with a penetrating water-based sealer, we have a choice of 3 sealants….Rapid Drying Stone Impregnator, Lavaseal and Norseal H20 for our Norstone Range. We will advise which one to use upon ordering. Please remember, that small application tests should be conducted before application, to determine its suitability.

Picture

What are the best stone cladding applications for PLANC™?

Norstone PLANC™ stone veneer loose strip system is ideal for:
  • Interior or Exterior projects looking to achieve a large format look with a long linear pattern.
  • Residential Applications, including entryways, exteriors, fireplaces, kitchen and bath backsplashes, pools and waterfalls.
  • Commercial Applications, including hospitality, medical, and commercial office build outs, retrofits, and signage.

Picture

What would you create with PLANC™ stone cladding strips?

The long linear format of Norstone’s PLANC™ system allows the designer to apply texture, pattern and colours to walls in ways only dreamt of before. PLANC™ is not restricted by the ubiquitous brick bond pattern used for fixing stacked stone panels, instead allowing the designer and contractor to collaborate on layouts that will be unique and stunning in appearance – we can’t wait to see what you will do with PLANC™ on your project.

Our new Aksent™ range  - uncompromisingly contemporary.

We’ve responded to demand to broaden our 3D Basalt range with new colours and materials - our grey and ebony basalt 3D XLX wall tiles have been augmented by quartz, lava stone and marble stone cladding tiles in beige, white and grey.

Our grey and ebony classics have proved very popular with architects and builders alike, and the success and demand for a wider colour range inspired us to create the new Aksent™ range. Every colour has the same Norstone characteristics of precision engineered modular natural stone panels of the highest quality allied with our unique interlocking fingerjointed corners allowing for supreme ease of installation and a seamless finish. Like all Norstone stone cladding products, the Aksent™ range comes with a unique warranty if correctly affixed using Laticrete MVIS products.

These modern wall tiles are perfect for contemporary commercial and residential use and are suitable for both interior and exterior use. Our original best-selling grey and ebony in basalt are still available and the full range includes a beautiful beige Latte in smooth as silk marble, a classic ice white Glacier marble, lava stone tiles in Platinum and a slightly darker Graphite grey, and a quartz tile in Silver Grey.

Please contact us ([email protected]) for further details. 150mm x 150mm samples and full size panels are available to order from our website and are delivered via FedEx 24 hour courier service. Orders received before noon are usually delivered the next working day.

Norstone's new Planc™ stone cladding

13/7/2018

0 Comments

 

Large-scale modular natural stone cladding

After our bespoke lava stone installation in the USA received rave reviews, we decided to develop a new product utilising lava stone and also using this large-scale format to include the ever popular basalt and quartzite materials used in Norstone’s other stone cladding ranges.

A minor departure from our renowned modular panels, the large format Planc™ still posseses all the benefits associated wiith Norstone’s product range - rapid, seamless installation of the highest quality, precision-cut natural stone with the warranty options Norstone has become famous for.

Packaged in sets of three (800 x 60/80/140mm), this versatile product can be laid however you prefer - staggered, symmetrical, asymmetrical or even whichever random design you decide upon. Be creative! We can also accommodate bespoke sizes from 150-1000mm wide to 1500mm long - please email us for more details.

The style is uncompromisingly modern and the range encompasses a silver grey quartzite to an ebony basalt. Surfaces range from naturally pitted lava stone to silky smooth basalt with degrees of honed finishes inbetween. Whether monochrome or a blend of several colours and finishes, our Planc™ range produces stunning results.
For further information please phone or email us.
