ABOUT FLEXIBLE STONE

Traditional MCM Large‑Size Artificial Stone Slabs with Micro‑Curvature

They are primarily composed of modified inorganic powders (clay / stone powder) and water‑based polymers. These products retain the three‑dimensional micro‑relief texture of natural stone, delivering a more substantial tactile feel. Its micro‑curvature property enables perfect fitting for large‑diameter cylinders or walls with gentle curvature. However, the slabs are prone to cracking if forced into small‑radius bending or 90‑degree folding. Featuring excellent freeze‑thaw resistance and UV resistance, this material serves as a premier alternative to conventional dry‑hang stone for building exterior wall renovation.

New‑type Artificial Stone Veneer with Non‑woven Fabric Base

This innovative product features ultra‑fine inorganic stone powder bonded onto a tough non‑woven fabric base. The incorporation of non‑woven fabric completely transforms the material’s physical and mechanical properties, delivering exceptional tear‑resistance and supreme flexibility. It can even be rolled up just like wallpaper, enabling seamless 90° right‑angle wrapping and cladding of special‑shaped components with small radii. This material greatly expands the application scope of stone materials in interior design, furniture veneering and ceiling decoration.

Comparison Criteria Traditional MCM Large‑Size Artificial Stone Slabs with Micro‑Curvature New‑type Artificial Stone Veneer with Non‑woven Fabric Base
Product Composition Modified Inorganic Stone Powder / Clay + Polymer Ultra‑fine Inorganic Stone Powder Coating + Non‑woven Fabric Backing
Standard Thickness Approx. 2.0 mm‑5.0 mm Approx. 1.0 mm‑2.0 mm (Ultra‑thin & Lightweight)
Flexibility Limit Only supports large‑radius slight‑arc bending; prone to fracture under excessive bending. Excellent flexibility, supports 90° right‑angle bending and small‑radius rolling.
Weight (kg/m²) Approx. 3.0‑6.0 kg/m² Approx. 1.0‑2.0 kg/m²
Visual and Tactile Properties Highly uneven surface, realistic three‑dimensional texture and solid feel of natural stone Relatively flat surface with delicate texture, lacking deep uneven relief.
Construction & Installation Requires special flexible tile adhesive, high requirement for substrate flatness Applicable with all‑purpose adhesive or backing glue; installation similar to wallpaper, easy to cut
Core Advantages Excellent weather resistance (suitable for outdoor use), high fire‑resistance rating, strong texture, lightweight for easy transportation and installation Good weather resistance (suitable for outdoor use), high fire‑resistance rating, eco‑friendly, unlimited shaping capability, tear‑resistant, shatter‑proof during handling, lightweight for easy transportation and installation, rich color options, applicable for other finishes such as furniture
Key Drawbacks Great limitation in shaping; cannot handle complex special‑shaped surfaces or 90° edge wrapping Texture similar to "stone‑look film"
Recommended Scenarios Building exterior walls, large‑area interior feature walls, large‑diameter column cladding Building exterior walls, interior landscape walls, custom‑made furniture, ceilings, complex irregular‑shaped spaces, bar counter edge cladding
Product Upgrades Iterated product of natural stone slabs and ceramic tiles Natural stone slabs, ceramic tiles, exterior wall coatings, exterior decorative paints, latex paints
