Lightweight marble is a very versatile material allowing us to use it in an architectural context where lightweight materials are needed. A pre-assembled material can facilitate the installation thanks to its holes, hinges and anchoring systems.
In recent years thin lightweight marble slabs have been used for external cladding on buildings with large facades. Thanks to our patented technology, the weight of our monolithic marble products can be reduced by up to 65% which has a significant impact on various economic and practical factors: easier transport and assembly consequently reducing costs, easier to handle thus less risk of breakage when positioning the product.
Extraordinarily one of our marble washbasins, if immersed in water, will float. This lightweight aspect allows us to install a large part of our products on many different tops and furniture even on a crystal top.
Dedalo’s technology offers an added ecological advantage: the foam and materials present in some of our monolithic bathtubs allows for the temperature of the water to stay hotter for longer compared to a normal marble bathtub, this and a beautiful ergonomic design guarantees the maximum level of relaxation whilst bathing. The most important advantage of our technology is that it allows every architect, designer or private client to easily install one of our stone or marble products in places where normally it wouldn’t be possible.
This means not having to sacrifice the rich and expressive beauty of such materials.
Lightweight stone and marble are versatile materials and can be used in all situations where marble is utilized: cladding, stairs, showers, flooring and objects of design. The lightweight marble slabs and our other lightweight products can be used:
