Lightweight Stone Panels...

Design Works is a supplier of lightweight natural stone products. These products can be provided with almost any marble, granite, or onyx material desired. With our state-of-the-art facility and knowledgeable staff, we can assist you in every aspect of your project, from providing only panels to custom cutting and fabrication to your specifications.

If you are not familiar with lightweight natural stone products, they offer all the beauty and durability of marble and granite at a fraction of the weight of conventional stone. The lightweight stone panel consists of approximately 1/8 in. of stone supported by 1/4 in. of backing material. Our backings include honeycomb aluminum for standard use, solid aluminum and composite for elevator floors, or transparent acrylic for back lighting.

If you are already familiar with the imported lightweight products, our lightweight stone offers significant cost and time savings over our competitors. Design Works’ control over the manufacturing process enables us to have shorter turnaround times and produce a wider range of sizes. We can produce materials up to 5’x 10’ sheets, and down to 12” x 12” tiles. Bookmatching is also available for stones with defined grain. There is also no minimum shipment, we can make you one panel if that is all you need.

Lightweight stone is easily adaptable for use in yachts, elevator cabs, motor coaches, aviation, and other locations that can benefit from its light weight and thin profile. It can be used for counter tops, vanity or tabletops, flooring, back splashes, tub and shower surrounds, and furnishings. The product is especially useful for flooring, wall panels, ceiling, inlays, even signs, making it the perfect product for condominiums, banks, hotels, office lobbies and conference rooms. A translucent variety of lightweight stone is also available for use in backlight applications.
