Marble on Glass: Translucent Natural Stone Panels
StonePly’s lightweight natural stone panels that are made using granite and other opaque stones are often bonded to an ultra-strong and durable aluminum honeycomb matrix. When natural stone panels are made using translucent stones such as marble, however, the best way to showcase them is to let light shine through. In these situations, StonePly’s translucent backing option is often the ideal choice.
StonePly Translucent Fabrication
StonePly’s professionals require just three things to craft gorgeous translucent marble stone panels: a thin layer of marble, epoxy, and glass. Placing translucent marble on glass gives what would otherwise be an extremely fragile sheet of marble strength and stability. Because the glass is also translucent, it does not significantly hinder the stone’s light-transmitting properties.
Applications For StonePly’s Marble Panels With Glass Backing
Translucent natural stone panels created by bonding marble to glass can be used for:
- Various types of natural stone flooring
- Illuminated natural stone partitions
- Lighted natural stone bar tops and counters
- Illuminated elevator ceilings
- Translucent natural stone curtain walls
Features and Benefits of StonePly Translucent Marble Panels
- Thicknesses of marble and glass panels range from 1/4″ to 3/4″
- Can be installed using channels, leaving adequate room for back lighting
- Every inch of the marble layer is bonded to the glass to eliminate weak spots
