Slate-Lite stone veneers:
the future of stone.
Real stone, thin & flexible
Slate-Lite is an innovative real stone veneer consisting of an ultra-thin natural stone layer and a carrier reinforced with glass fibres or cotton.
We have developed a special process to produce many wafer-thin slabs from the most beautiful stone blocks in the world. Each of these slabs is unique and handcrafted in over 12 processing steps.
Despite its lightness, Slate-Lite stone veneer retains the feel and look of a solid stone slab. At the same time, our stone veneer is only approx. 0.06 in thin and even flexible!

FAQ
In our FAQ you will find answers to frequently asked questions about our stone veneers: From processing to application possibilities to ordering & shipping.
Our thin stone veneers are suitable for almost all substrates!
You can easily bond our stone veneers to these substrates, among others: Concrete, plasterboard, wood, metal, tiles, plaster, glass etc.
No special preparation is required for "stable" substrates: The substrate simply needs to be smooth, dust-free, clean and dry. Crumbling substrates such as old, flaking plaster or wallpaper that is already peeling off must be primed in advance to ensure a permanent bond between the adhesive and the wall.
Excessive unevenness in the substrate must either be treated with a primer or sanded down.
Our thin stone veneers are available in many different sizes, depending on the laying pattern and spatial effect you would like to achieve.
Our standard sizes are:
- S // 12 x 24 in (bundle 11.64 ft2) *)
- M // 48 x 24 in (8 ft2)
- L // 94.5 x 47.2 in (31 ft2)
- XL // 110.23 x 47.24 in (36,17 ft2)
Due to the ease of processing, our stone veneers can of course also be cut to any desired special size with millimeter precision.
If you do not want to cut and customize the material yourself, you can also have your desired decor produced directly in our store to the millimetre or order a cut of the material via our workbox services.
*) The 30 x 60 cm format is currently available in the Stick&GO! version with self-adhesive film in selected decors.
Cutting our thin stone veneers to size is extremely easy, and almost any standard DIY tool is suitable for this: You can cut Slate-Lite to the required size with millimeter precision using a hand or table saw, jigsaw or multitool.
Simply cut the stone sheet from the back using a wooden or plastic saw blade with medium teeth. If necessary, then lightly sand the cut edge with sandpaper.
Bonding the Slate-Lite stone veneers is extremely simple:
Simply apply the adhesive to the back of the stone sheet or directly to the mounting surface, press the stone veneers into place - DONE!
In the following video, we show you how to apply our recommended Slate-Lite Extreme Adhesive.
This ready-to-use MS adhesive is simply spread with a B3 notched trowel. Make sure that the adhesive is evenly grooved and do not smooth it out.
Then press the Slate-Lite stone veneer onto the desired area with light and even pressure or a pressure roller and that's it!
To achieve an optimum result, work with a spirit level.
Adhesive residue on the sheet can be removed with our special cleaners.
Slate-Lite can be cleaned with all commercially available, non-corrosive household cleaners.
In most cases, clear water and a lint-free cloth or brush will suffice.
In outdoor areas, cleaning with a high-pressure cleaner is also possible, but please observe the distance recommended by the appliance manufacturer when using it.
