Natural Stone for Interior Wall Cladding & Decorative Wall Applications

Interior Wall Stone Selection: What Matters Most?

• Dimensional Precision: Accurate sizing ensures clean joints and alignment.
• Weight Consideration: Appropriate thickness reduces wall load.
• Maintenance Requirements: Smooth surfaces are easier to clean and maintain.
