Natural Stone Thin Veneer is a good option for the following projects :

  • Home renovations when full thickness stone may be too much added weight or depth. Like a kitchen backsplash or fireplace remodel.
  • Existing buildings that don’t have a proper footing for full thickness stone.
  • Commercial or residential projects with weight restrictive building codes.
  • Can be directly applied to existing masonry applications such as concrete, brick, block and tilt wall structures.
  • Will also adhere to concrete board, plywood, and drywall with the use of metal lathe for most applications.

 

Here at Alliance Materials, our Natural Stone Thin Veneer starts out as our full thickness, 3”-5” bed depth building material. With the use of our modern machinery, we then cut it down to an approximate thickness of 1.25” +/-. Maintaining the natural beauty and durability of the stone, while trimming off the excess weight. Thin veneer flats used in correlation with the corner pieces provide the look of a traditional full bed depth material while drastically reducing the weight associated with full thickness.
