Product Description:
NextStone’s masons and master craftsmen have created products that are the ideal combination
of stone textures and sizes, melding them artistically into an extremely easy to install paneling
system. NextStone products are a light weight veneer wall panel system, providing a very
realistic “rock wall” appearance. These products are intended for exterior applications over
masonry, wood framed, or metal framed construction, be it residential or commercial. The
products have been engineered to eliminate additional structural or foundation support is
required. The basic system requires no caulking.
NextStone products are made of uniquely formulated closed cell polyurethane, incorporating
UV inhibitors and fire retardants. The panels and accessory pieces have been cast from real
stone giving them a remarkably realistic rock look. A specially formulated In Mold Coating is
chemically and mechanically bonded with the molded surface of the panel. The result is a
lightweight, durable wall panel system with a realistic rock finish.
Limitations:
NextStone products are intended as wall coverings only and should not be used as pavers or
subjected to foot traffic. NextStone products do not add to the structural load bearing capacity
of the substrate to which it is applied. If NextStone products are used below grade or water
level, discoloration of the product can occur from the leaching of minerals and chemicals from
the soil and water. The product will not be altered or degraded, but color fastness is not
guaranteed. Avoid installing in locations which will be repeatedly subjected to abrasion, or
repeated contact such as lawn mowers and string trimmers.
