Manufactured Stone Cladding

Manufactured stone cladding is man-made and designed to resemble natural stone. From afar, the differences between the two can be difficult to distinguish - even by an expert. Achieved using moulds, concrete and aggregate materials, you can achieve almost the exact finish of real stone at a lower price point. The lightweight nature of manufactured stone cladding makes for easy assembly and exerts less pressure on walls and other structures indoors and outdoors.
