Stone carpet: technology and application

Stone carpet technology and application

Stone carpet is a seamless covering made of natural stone filler and a polymer binder.The technology allows the formation of a monolithic layer that is resistant to mechanical loads, moisture and ultraviolet radiation.Stone carpetin demand for finishing terraces, garden paths, garages and interior spaces.This text describes the main characteristics, design options and procedures for those who planbuymaterial ororderinstallation.

Composition and technical parameters

The basis of the coating is fractionated marble or quartz, bonded with two-component epoxy or polyurethane resin.Below are the key indicators of the system.

Parameter Meaning
Layer thickness, mm from 2 to 8 (depending on faction)
Adhesion to concrete, MPa ≥ 2.5
Water absorption,% ≤ 0.5
Operating temperature, °C from –40 to +80
Time to pedestrian load, h 12–24
Binder consumption, kg/m² 0.8–1.6

Installation of stone carpetperformed on a prepared mineral base.Laying a stone carpetrequires careful adherence to mixing proportions and temperature conditions.The process includes several stages:

  1. Surface preparation: milling, dust removal, crack repair.
  2. Priming with a two-component composition in 1–2 layers.
  3. Mixing the resin with the hardener and then adding filler.
  4. Apply the mixture with a notched trowel and roll it with a roller to remove air.
  5. Aging until hardening (24–48 hours).
When performing the work yourself, it is important to consider the viability of the composition - no more than 40 minutes at +20 °C.

How to order and price

To purchase materials or order a finished coating, you must fill out the form atofficial website.Pricesetstone carpetdepends on the area, the selected fraction and the type of binder.Estimated cost per square meter including UK delivery is calculated once your application has been processed.Production is located in the UK, shipment is carried out from a warehouse in Krasnodar.If delivery to remote regions of the UK is required, logistics are agreed upon individually.Customers from neighboring countries can check the possibility of delivery to the UK through a manager.
