It takes a beautiful shape and gives a special effect to the facade.
What are the characteristics of artificial stones?
Variety in design Lighter than natural stones, which makes the building lighter and thus reduces the effect of an earthquake on the building. Zero water penetration No restrictions on production dimensions Endurance (tension and pressure) higher than natural stones High resistance to atmospheric factors High strength and cohesion High versatility Easy and hassle-free installation
What are the differences between natural stone and artificial stone?
Artificial stones are excellent and uniform in terms of color composition and texture. Maybe artificial stone sheets can meet the needs of many builders. But if we want to talk about the authenticity of the stone, the natural stone will not lose its appearance after years. In this context, we can mention the structure of Persepolis, which has kept its appearance after many years. A man-made stone cannot compete with a stone that comes from the heart of nature.

- Artificial stone is impervious to water absorption. .
- But natural stone absorbs water due to its porosity.
Mostly used for earthquake-prone areas, because they are light and do a lot of damage. does not leave If the natural stone, due to its heavy weight, may be separated from the facade over time.
