Rockpanel Stones
Solid as a rock, yet highly flexible. Rockpanel Stones panels offer you the best of both worlds: they look like stone and have the same fire-resilient qualities, but they can also be bent and curved. Order your samples here
Once you’ve curved and placed the panels in the way you like, you don’t have to worry about shrinking or expanding. As the panels do not respond to changes in temperature or moisture, dimensional stability for the years to come is guaranteed. This allows you to use narrow joints
