REAL NATURAL STONE AROUND THE FIREPLACE

Slate-Lite around the fireplace area

Fornir kamienny na ściany kominkowe: prawdziwy kamień naturalny wokół kominka

Ein Kamin lebt von Wärme, Material und Atmosphäre. Mit Slate-Lite gestalten Sie Kaminwände, Ofenrückwände und Feuerstellen mit echter Natursteinoberfläche – nicht mit gedruckter Steinoptik, sondern mit dünnem Steinfurnier aus echtem Stein.

Die ca. 1,5 mm dünnen Platten bringen natürliche Farbe, Struktur und Haptik an den Kamin, ohne das Gewicht und die Aufbauhöhe massiver Steinplatten. Dadurch eignet sich Slate-Lite ideal für moderne Kaminverkleidungen, Rückwände hinter Schwedenöfen, gemauerte Kamine oder dekorative Wandflächen rund um die Feuerstelle.

Slate-Lite ist hitzebeständig bis 120 °C und damit für viele Anwendungen im Kaminbereich geeignet. 

For fireplace walls, stove back panels and decorative surfaces around the fireplace, Slate-Lite is much easier to plan with than solid stone slabs. The material is only approx. 1.5 mm (approx. 1/16") thin, can be cut to the millimetre and adds very little weight to the wall. This means that existing surfaces, drywall constructions, niches or older fireplace areas can also be retrofitted with real stone.

Technically, Slate-Lite is suitable for many applications around fireplaces: the stone veneers are heat-resistant up to 120 °C (248 °F). The standard adhesives are temperature-resistant up to 90 °C (194 °F), making them suitable for many applications around fireplaces and stoves. For higher temperatures, specific distances from the fireplace or special fire protection requirements, the project should be assessed in advance. As standard, Slate-Lite achieves EU class Cfl-s1 according to EN 13501-01 for flooring, or B1 according to DIN 4102; on request, a special composition up to fire class Cs3d0 is possible.

Each sheet is unique

Thanks to the 100% natural stone surface, each stone veneer is truly unique.

Easy to cut and adapt

Cut-outs, edges and joints can be adapted directly around the fireplace, stove pipe, niches or existing wall surfaces using suitable tools.

Only approx. 1.5 mm (approx. 1/16") thin & particularly lightweight

The stone veneer brings real stone to the fireplace without the thickness and weight of solid stone slabs. This makes planning, cutting and installation easier.

How to install Slate-Lite around fireplaces and stoves

1. Check the application area
Slate-Lite is heat-resistant up to 120 °C (248 °F) and is suitable for many decorative surfaces around fireplaces, stoves and fire areas. The distance from the heat source, substrate, adhesive and fire protection requirements should match the specific fireplace or stove situation.

2. Prepare the substrate
The surface should be solid, dry, clean and load-bearing. Suitable substrates include plaster, plasterboard, cement-bonded boards, tiles or other stable wall surfaces.

3. Plan the surface and cut to size
Define the sheet format, joint pattern and connections in advance. Slate-Lite can be cut with a hand-held circular saw, table saw, jigsaw or multi-tool. Cut-outs for stove pipes, sockets, edges or niches can be adjusted to fit.

4. Use a suitable adhesive
For installation around fireplaces and stoves, the adhesive must match the temperature exposure. The standard adhesives are temperature-resistant up to 90 °C (194 °F); for higher requirements, a suitable special adhesive should be used.

5. Bond the sheets
Apply the adhesive evenly, position Slate-Lite, press it on and align it. Thanks to its low weight and thickness of only approx. 1.5 mm (approx. 1/16"), even larger fireplace surfaces can be designed comparatively easily.

6. Finish edges and surface
Visible edges can be sanded or finished with suitable profiles. Depending on the level of use, impregnation or sealing may be useful so that the natural stone surface is easier to clean.

The result: a fireplace cladding made of real natural stone – thin, lightweight, individual and much easier to install than solid stone slabs.
