In recent years, soft stone as a new type of building and decorative materials, because of its unique performance, visual effect and environmental protection characteristics, quickly become the industry’s new favourite.
What is soft stone?
Soft stone is a kind of artificial stone, using natural mineral components and modern technology processing. Compared with traditional natural stone, soft stone has lower hardness and density, but still has excellent visual effect and durability.
Key features:
Lightweight and easy to work with: the lower density of soft stone makes it easier to handle and install, as well as easier to carve and cut, adapting to more design needs.
Strong environmental protection: soft stone is made of environmentally friendly materials, in line with green building standards, non-toxic and harmless, and can be recycled, reducing the burden on the environment.
Variety of textures and colours: Soft stone can show rich textures, colours and glossy effects through different techniques and technologies to meet the design needs of different styles.
Durability and stain resistance: despite its low hardness, soft stone has better wear resistance and is easy to clean with strong stain resistance.
Why become the industry’s new favourite?
- Excellent cost performance
Compared to natural stone, soft stone is usually cheaper and easier to work with and install, making it more cost-effective. Whereas traditional stone requires laborious mining, cutting and transport, the production process for soft stone is more environmentally friendly and efficient. - Environmental protection and sustainable development
As global environmental awareness increases, the demand for green building materials continues to grow. Soft stone uses raw materials from natural minerals, and its production process is relatively environmentally friendly. Compared with traditional stone, soft stone not only reduces the damage of mining to the natural environment, but also reduces construction waste through recycling. - Adapt to a variety of application scenarios
Wall and floor decoration: soft stone can add natural beauty to any space, suitable for residential, commercial space, office buildings and other types of places on the wall and floor.
Kitchen and bathroom: soft stone has good waterproof and moisture-proof performance, suitable for kitchen countertops, bathroom walls and floors and other wet environment.
Furniture and art decoration: soft stone is also widely used in furniture, art sculpture, countertops and other design areas, with its plasticity, can create amazing artistic effects.
As a new building material, soft stone is gradually becoming the new favourite of designers and architects due to its unique advantages. It not only has excellent visual effect and flexible application, but also excels in environmental protection, cost control and long-term maintenance.
