Introduction to Stone

Stone, as a high-end building decoration material, is widely used in indoor and outdoor decoration design, curtain wall decoration, and public facility construction. The common types of stone in the market are mainly divided into natural stone and artificial stone.

Natural stone is divided into two types based on its physical and chemical properties: slate and granite. Artificial stone is divided into terrazzo and synthetic stone according to the process. Terrazzo is forged from raw materials such as cement and concrete; Synthetic stone is made from crushed natural stone as raw material, combined with adhesive and other materials, and pressed and polished. The latter two are artificially made, so their strength is not as valuable as natural stone. Stone is a high-end product of building decoration materials. Natural stone is generally divided into granite, slate, sandstone, limestone, volcanic rock, etc. With the continuous development and progress of technology, artificial stone products are also constantly changing, and their quality and beauty are no longer inferior to natural stone. With the development of architectural design, stone has long become one of the important raw materials for construction, decoration, roads, and bridges.
