TERRA ROSSO is a reddish decor with structures in the red and pink spectrum.
The gentle red tones are reminiscent of rocky formations at dusk – the perfect mixture of holiday harmony and powerful stone.
With TERRA ROSSO you bring warmth and color into every room. Combined with dark furniture and decorative elements, you can emphasize the powerful elegance of the stone surface even more.
As a Translucent-variant, the red and pink tones unfold particularly warm, atmospheric plays of light when backlit – ideal for real design statements.

Slate-Lite is made from layered stone. Colour variations between individual sheets, quartz veins running through the stone, natural cracks or slight chipping may occur. This is not a defect, but rather a characteristic of the real natural stone surface and what makes every Slate-Lite stone sheet truly unique.
Our regular Slates generally have a slightly softer stone surface and stand out for their richness of colour, as well as constantly changing patterns and textures.
Mica slates usually have a somewhat rougher surface with more uniform patterns. A special visual highlight is the shimmering effect created by the natural quartzite content within the stone.
Limestones impress with a smoother surface and relatively uniform patterns and textures.
Sandstones are characterised by a slightly rough, somewhat grainy surface, including slight differences in height and, in some cases, smaller raised areas with a greater overall thickness.
Marbles have a naturally split surface with pronounced veining and raised textures. Continuously changing patterns and partial structures with a greater overall thickness create a striking overall appearance.

In principle, any light source can be used for backlighting Translucent – the key factor is even illumination for a clean lighting effect.
The easiest solution is a high-performance LED panel. Alternatively, fluorescent tubes, light bulbs or LED strips can also be used; in these cases, a diffuser or frosted glass panel placed between the light source and Translucent helps to improve light distribution.
A sufficient distance from the light source (approx. 6 cm) also ensures optimal light diffusion. Depending on whether warm white, cool white or RGB LEDs are used, different lighting moods can be created – from cosy to modern or colourful.
The basic installation process for Translucent involves four simple steps:
- Lay Translucent completely flat and decide on the order and arrangement in advance, as the lighting effect may vary
- Optionally apply an impregnation or sealer depending on the area of use (in wet areas, ideally after cutting and bonding)
- Prepare the substrate and the back of the sheet so they are free from dust and grease, then apply a suitable adhesive, such as Translucent Crystal Clear, evenly and without air bubbles using a smooth trowel
- Position the stone sheet and press it down firmly; if required, bond it to glass or acrylic as a backing and plan the backlighting accordingly
