HexStone

About HexStone

The HexStone product line includes our innovative lightweight panel comprised of 4 to 6 mm stone with a honeycomb core that provides sixty (60) times the elongation strength of stone at a third of the weight, as compared to traditional stone products. This innovation provides opportunities for a variety of applications as the HexStone panels are easily handled and installed on interior & exterior walls, fireplace features, islands, countertops and many other applications. HexStone panels provide for cost-effective design choices with improved strength and lightweight advantages as a result of the stone-honeycomb hybrid panel.

The HexStone panels are also available with a fiberglass top skin for all and commercial interior & exterior wall applications. This simple design change allows our product the ability to adhere in extreme weather environments where other products using an aluminum top skin in these same applications will fail because of two separate materials expanding and contracting at different values. This is just one of the design revisions we have introduced into our markets.

Our partner manufactures have access to the largest quarries and stone markets in the world with an almost limitless selection of products including marble, granite, quartz, travertine, limestone, onyx, jade, engineered quartz, glass and more.

Why Choose HexStone?

Custom Sizes
& Shapes

HexStone is manufactured to architectural & design specifications with different honeycomb materials, sizes, thickness, shapes and corners.

Light
Weight

HexStone uses 1/3 the thickness of traditional stone slabs making it easier to handle and requires significantly less structural support.

Stronger Than
The Others

Honeycomb disperses tension and impact on the stone resulting in a 60x strength and high wind load capacities.

Natural
Variations

HexStone is real stone and is available in a wide variety of colours and grains. No two stones are the same.

Environmentally
Friendly

By using HexStone in place of natural stone, we can save more than 80% of natural resources including stone, sand and cement thus saving the environment.

Variety of
Textures

HexStone has many texture finishes to choose from including polished, flamed, sandblasted, grooved and chiseled.

Innovative Technology

The HexStone panels are made up of a thin stone veneer, the substrate materials of choice for the applications and aviation grade adhesives for permanent bonding.
